Mike to understand your statement you have to have been there. I was once in the midst of 15 adults and three calves. I was not hunting them and they somehow seemed to sense I was not a threat. It was probably the smell of fear I was giving off. Just standing still as they passed looking at my PH and I was incredibly difficult. To shoot one and experience the herd's anger would ilicit a totally more extreme experience. At that point tusker or not means little.
My hat is off to MadDog I think he has earned his name.
