Cape Buffalo Bowhunt Video

Great shot awsome bow bull
 
NICE!! Did that arrow take out both lungs? Were your PH(s) surprised that the bull dropped that quickly?
 
Nice Video and some good luck on your side to have had the bull in a perfect position.
 
Congrats on the bull. Great shot and video. Thanks for sharing.
 
Great video of your hunting a Cape Buffalo. That's my dream hunt right there.!
 
Congrats on your buffalo John! Great video too!
 
That buffalo had no idea you were there until the arrow hit. That is a marvelous job by you and your team. Congratulations on a hunt well done. (y)(y)(y)
 
No one has asked what was the poundage of your bow and weight of your arrows?
 
Congrats! Hope to do this one day, gonna test my nerves and skills with my double first though :D

Yes, but the primary damage was to one lung; the single bevel made a round hole right through it. The Big 5 PH had taken 250 Buffalo and never seen such a blood trail or quick kill; he was blown away.

I put it in the vid description and did a previous vid on my arrow build.

I was shooting a Bowtech SR6 at 72#, 27” draw, Performance Setting. 770 gr arrow: Bishop FAD Eliminator w/ a 250 gr Bishop Scientific Method Single Bevel head.
 
Congrats! Nice buff and video. Up close.
 
Would love to do this ......from high up in the biggest tree I could find !

Fantastic video. Your additional video on arrow build and selection for this hunt was very informative, as well. I'd suggest others check it out!
 
With all respect for Bishop, with a 12 arrow package Hot FAD Eliminator at 1,200$ or 700$ for three Frozen FAD Eliminator shafts, without a low priced test pack option, you can get plenty of arrow for much less; for a 315 grains broadhead, single bevel at 400$ a pack of three; with 12 weeks waiting time on stock products.....Fred Bear the father of popular archery, must be turning into the grave.
 
Perfect shot, yes, but as a traditional archer (both longbow and recurve), all the techy stuff just drives me crazy. 25 yds. - make the same shot all day long with either. And I agree with above, Fred and Howard and Glenn are all rolling.

We are all on the same team. Let’s cheer our teammates success.
 
Great shot! Great video! Well done and Congrats!
