It appears from the post on AR that another PH has been killed by a Buf. I assume the accident report will be posted by those who know as to what the circumstances were.
We all need to make the FIRST shot count and then hope things don't go south.

I won't ask any questions.... I promise. Still my condolences to his family. Not a good year for the PH/Tracker folks at all. jorge

Might be time to take the term "dangerous game" seriously. Prayers sent for the family.

Yes, prayers sent.
That's why they are dangerous, because they can and will kill you.

very sad, he was one of our guides on our 2 week hunt in 2010. The owner of our company is leaving in 2 weeks on a hunt with Adam Clements and Wayne was supposed to Ph for the group.

Sorry to hear this. It's a small sample, but it is interesting that we are reading about the deaths of PH's, not clients. That suggests a lot about the character and bravery of the PH's.

Hunting in Loikisale area, Tanzania. Hunted there, and the buffalo are among the biggest anywhere. This is so sad. My condolences to Wayne Clark's family and friends.

Anyone know where on AR it was noted. I went over there, but couldn't find anything, so searched it and africahunting site has a note on it, but "no particulars" yet.

Found the posting, under ARs, African Hunting, no hunting under it. Anyway, there's more information (he was hooked by a wounded Buff), at the Hemingwaysfoyer, I believe it is, or the DSI publication. Also a picture of him.
