It was great storytelling of what sounds like a great hunt! I grew up doing hunts like that. I'm curious what ranch you were hunting? BTW, the word you're trying to capture is "Laho'ole". Laho is the nugs. ole means without (or "no more" in pidgin english). I have a bowhunter friend that took a head-on shot on a bull (I didn't get the full story, but I think it was charging him). The arrow hit forehead and didn't penetrate very far. The bull got to him and tossed him airborne and I believe he's lucky to be alive. Coincidentally I'm headed to Kona for work tomorrow. I'll stop in at my friend's bow shop and get the full story. Yes, a head shot on a bull with an arrow would be less than useless. Did you ever get the details?

I hope to pressure wash the Water buffalo skull this weekend. The temps may be nice enough to do so. Member Wisconsin Bowhunters Assc, Wisconsin Traditional archers, Pope and Young, Asbhy 100,

I made a frame to staple the hide to and a hanger for the skull. There is a little more to do before its complete but its coming along nicely.

The Tiki Idol hanging on the skull was pulled from the surf on Hawaii a few days prior to the hunt. Member Wisconsin Bowhunters Assc, Wisconsin Traditional archers, Pope and Young, Asbhy 100,

Sometime I run a 3rd cam (hand held) but in this case I was unaware the guide was also filming. Member Wisconsin Bowhunters Assc, Wisconsin Traditional archers, Pope and Young, Asbhy 100,
