James nice offer.
@CAustin , my avatar is a 72 pounder taken with a bow......would I do it again...I don't think so.....add another 0 on the 27k, I might begin to think about it.
I am curious, what was the issue on taking the elephant with the bow that makes you hesitant to do it again? I just started with the bow about 5 months ago but was able to take a Cape buffalo in August in Thabazimbi and got a total pass through on it. It was actually my first time hunting so I don't have a lot of experience to go on. I know the elephant is larger and has a tougher hide, but it is that much more difficult to hunt the the buffalo or just the extra size that is the concern?
(and sorry for the thread hijack - I would be interested in this except for the restriction on bow hunting in Namibia).
