Thanks, Steve. Yeah I was surprised at the terrain myself, but it was very beautiful, particularly near the Zambesi Escarpment. The shot was around 80 yards. Longer than I wanted, but as you saw, the setup was perfect and John said shoot when I whistle, so I did! He's an "ok" buffalo as far as the tape goes, but he was around 12 years old. I'm staring at his ugly azz as I type this  jorge

Jorge,
Wonderful hunt, wonderful buffalo. Seeing this convinces me
I MUST hunt a buffalo sometime. I've hunted plains game once,
but these animals are awe-inspiring. It seems to be a real
challenge to get a shot in that thick stuff.

Thanks, Dave. I would have preferred a closer shot, but as you can see by the video, the buff gave us a pretty clear shot and I was able to place the shot exactly where I wanted it. Glad you enjoyed it. jorge
