Great Practice Target For Buffalo Hunting

No matter how fancy or simple a paper target may be, it is 2 dimensional. For hunting shot placement and bullet track on any big game, you have to think in 3 dimensions. For buffalo or large animal practice, I just use a plain, large black bull on a paper target or a large paper plate, spray painted black, on a piece of cardboard. I practice from about 25 yards to no more than about 100.
Yes you really need to think of the track of the bullet, the whole way through.
For @DSJR I have to take my hat off to you and your son for going on what I expect is the very first in a headless cape buff hunt :ROFLMAO: :A Stirring:(y)saves on them trophy impo fees eh(y)
But in all seriousness great idea and love those targets!

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.

Dave, I could use both of them if still available. I just picked up a new .22 mag and a .22 pump that they would be perfect on.
