Simple yet striking pedestal mount. This is how I am getting mine done as we speak.

 

[Sheldor]

Congratulations!

Second pic looks like you’re riding it like a horse.

Nice, and with a bow!

Who's doing the mount for you? I'm having Bull's Eye Taxidermy do my buffalo very similar to that, but with it's head higher in a alert position.

Great job on the buffalo! Congrats on your success.

Congrats! What’s your setup? Draw weight? Arrow grains?

Thank you sir. 75lb mathews lift. 29.5 inch draw. Black eagle rampage arrows with weighted inserts and an 250 grain iron will buff. Total arrow weight of 850 grains 20% front of center. Straight up the leg center of the shoulder pass through. Watched him fall inside 50 yards

Fantastic
Congratulations
It's a great sperimen and you did in the most challenging way
Also with a "still doable" poundage, definitely meaning that perfect arrow placement and bow tuning are the keys
Super

Nice! I'm planning a hunt for water buffalo next month and I'll be building some heavy arrows in the next week or so.

 

[DonPablo]

So after a LOT of online reading, I've been convinced that high FOC doesn't increase penetration but is rather a byproduct of heavy arrows that tend to have most of the weight up front. I'm going to try and build mine heavy with high but not excessive FOC. Wish me luck as I have a pretty short draw length.

To the OP ...I am admittedly jealous ...OK envious. Your Buff is my dream buff with all of the characteristics I am looking for ..love the drop it has. Where was it taken?
