unwounded buffalo cow charge!

I shot an old cow this past August near where the Crocodile and Marico form the Limpopo. It wasn't THIS exciting, but neither was it an easy hunt, about a 30 or 40 yard shot after a long stalk through some thick thorns and steel grass. She had been separated from the herd, so we didn't have that challenge, but just getting to her was a bit of an ordeal.

My 9.3 went "boom," she ran 50 or so yards, crashed, and gave her death sigh.

I agree with Ruark. Mbogo makes me dry in the mouth and my hands sweaty.

Do the laundry staff handle PH's clothes? , the hunter was Norwegian.
If I was the PH I’d throw it in the laundry basket and swear it wasn’t mine !

If you push them long enough, they might charge when they've had enough.

That's normal for any female. Some bite your head off for no known reason but believe me they have a reason even if'n y'all never know what it was.

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John [redacted]
