I have seen scars like that on old unmarked bulls from a station in the territory that is only 2 paddocks.
trying to drive these cattle on horseback proved futile as they would just stand and shake, then charge you.
and they had horns.
we ended up sending the dogs around the other side of them, and they chased the dogs up into the yards at the now defunct Adelaide abattoirs.
the point is bovines do not cut or scar easily, and must sustain something pretty serious to cause this.
yet again you share an interesting observance ben.

Cheers! My guess is he lost his footing in a fight and got caned. I’ve seen a lot of barbed wire scratches on buffalo and they’re similar to how our legs get scratched by the grass.

when you think about it, his last few days were not an all out success.

Hello,
Am I reading your post correctly to say that the Tsavo rifle will be coming out with a composite stock later this year? I ask because I had been looking very hard for a Tsavo, but if there is going to be a composite stock model I will wait for that.
Thank you for your time,
Andrew

Saw your post. Nice. Denver too. Genesee area (just off 70) if ever up this way. Alternatively, do you have a membership at GGC? Whatever, you'll have a wonderful time in Africa. Enjoy.
