Posted By: Irving_D Crazy Buffalo ride - 02/13/24
I posted this in the fire, but for those of you that don't venture there, or missed it. I figured I would share it here before it ends up 50 pages down.


I hope there's a more detailed video out there. This is insane. Crazy shooting
The back story as received from reliable a source

"It was shot with a bow. Myself, PH/Outfitter and the client walked on the tracks for a few kms, good blood but we didn't find a dead buff. Called in the vehicle so the client can switch from bow to rifle. We backtracked about 100 meters to have a buffer between us and last spot of blood. Landowner and manager arrived with dogs, although PH told them not to go in before we are ready with the guns, they just walked off to see of dogs can get blood. 30 seconds later they came back at speed, buffalo circled around and was much closer than the 100 meters we cleared. PH couldn't take a shot because of the manager in the way, him and me circled around to let the guy pass and get a side-on shot on the buffalo. Guy got thrown, client took a shot while guy was in the air, rest is all clear on the video."

It took some work but I snagged some stills for a better perspective. That dude is lucky he's not pooping from two holes, and that he still has a pair.

Some taxidermist needs to do a full mount complete with guy on the bull.

I bet this put a grin on Chris Ledoux.

Moment of shot, you can see smoke from barrel to the left

That boot and hat in the air capture is epic.

That was just my attempt at screen shots off youtube. It took awhile but turned out pretty good

If you zoom in on the bull I think he's thinking the guy holding the rifle is his next target

I don't think they knew what they were getting into.The hunters with their rifles were more dangerous than the bull.

Wow! Talk about a war story. The fellow on top of the Buff will have a great story to tell at the pub. Backed up by a video proving that it did happen. Was he injured very bad Irving?

I do not know this just popped up on YouTube. I really hope there is a follow up video of the full hunt, and maybe campfire conversation

Buddy sent that to me yesterday. My first take: Whoever shot with dude still on the buff/in line of fire, should get his ass whipped.

Aside from that? F yo mechanical bull! LOL

The Bull rider was lucky he wasn’t shot,

With Friends like that………Be better off going in solo.

In complete agreement with you. Survive the ride and die from a gunshot from some yahoo.

Mess with the bull & you get the horns.

Good thing he didn't. He might have got shot.

What were they supposed to do? Stand there and watch him get killed by that buff?

Those stills really tell the story. Yee Haaa !!!
Posted By: SDLEFTY Re: Crazy Buffalo ride - 02/26/24
I think it was a good shot by a professional. The camera angle isn't perfect plus we don't know the whole story. IMO

Did you see the shot taken with the ‘rider’ on the bull?
The bull on the move, the man in motion, way too many things going on there to safely take that shot,

That shot was within feet or even inches of the rider

Yes, You stand there and watch until you have a clear line of fire,

I’ll assume you didn’t notice the shot from the guy on the left.

That could have gone very bad very quickly.
Posted By: Irving_D Re: Crazy Buffalo ride - 02/27/24
I would say it was very good shooting considering the circumstances. I am sure the last thing the rider was thinking was don't shoot. The guy on the left clearly shoots first at point blank as the guys getting airborne. Guy on the right shoots when the bull is past the rider and rider is laying on the ground. I'd say it's the best possible outcome given the situation
