"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."

Hunting with atl atl is not forbidden, but ... I guess that not only you should be quite good in its proper use but also you should not be the only one using this kind of weapon with a water buffalo (I mean more than one hunter throwing spears with these devices at the same time in order to increase the effectiveness of the mortal wounds being made in a beast of that strenght),and of course, rely yourself in a confident backup

The latter not only for your own security but also to assure the beast to have a clean and as quick as possible death - since, having all the legal permissions in order, the worst scenario I can imagine that might make you encounter any legal problem about hunting with atl atl, would base on how was the beast killed (not with what - the idea is to avoid any charges on animal cruelty ... actually something quite unlikely to happen in Argentina

Justin, I would recommend nothing less than 60 lb draw weight. No sense in a hunter trying to over do his draw weight. If you can shoot 70 lbs comfortably, and accurately, then by all means, bring it. As in all bow hunting, the hunt will be to try and get as close as possible and take only the best killing shots. PH can back up with rifle for safety, and I recommend anyone having back up on dangerous game. Probably won't need it but just in case. Yes, all trophy game can be processed for shipment and sent to the States. There are Taxidermists in Argentina that handle trophies for hunters. We can help with that.
