Buzz CharltonHi Folks
Just finished the DSC show and because of time restraints getting the dvd done I did not manage to watch the final version in Atlanta where we were working on it.
I did however watch iton the plane today. There are a few things that I am not 100% happy with and will be changing. I will reburn and have the address of everyone who has bought the dvd to date on the website and will be sending you a free copy as soon as they are done.
For those of you who bought at the show please email me address and will add you guys on to that list. While not major changes the new version will be a more rounded finish and look at the last as a complimentary DVD!
Cheers Buzz

retreeverBuzz outstanding and dramatic at times the reality of why one should practice with their rifle and the reality of Dangerous Game.
Thank you,

GunsCoreI just got my copy in the mail and watched it last night. I am amazed at the quality these small high definition video cameras can now produce. I have a big 52" HD flatscreen up on the wall and watching high quality DVDs like this one is the next best thing to being there.
Congrats on producing another outstanding hunting video and to Mike Jines for some fantastic shooting.
STAY IN THE FIGHT!

retreever "The Essence of Elephant Hunting the name says it all. I have been privileged to have hunted the elephant and Buzz's video could not have been better titled. I have watched it for the second time and seeing some of my friends here on AR watching it all play out. The camera man would be a good guy to back anyone up with a big bore. Nerves of steel always getting the shot. All of the different confrontations and shots knowing someone is there showing and knowing elephant behavior.
For any hunter this DVD is a must. If one is even considering hunting the elephant it is imperative you own and learn from it.
Buzz, thank you for making all of us better hunters.

bwanamrmBuzzer, Good job on the video... well done, man!
On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling
Life grows grim without senseless indulgence.

shootawayI saw the video yesterday and liked it very much.I was surprised to see the ele take a bullet in the head and continue its charge.I was also impressed with how the client -Paul stopped the charge on his own.Many exciting moments.

MikeBurkeI bought the video in Vegas and just got around to watching it.
It is outstanding. A very good addition to Buzz's other videos.

dakota45056Buzzer,
I obtained my copy at the DSC. It is excellent in camera work and content. Justin won't have any trouble holding the camera steady in Sept. This DVD and the previous one, "Hunting the African Elephant" is a must for anyone contemplating a bull elephant hunt or tangling with the Zambezi Ladies in the valley. Good work!

FishN4EyesFinally got to it this weekend.
Fantastic DVD, I really enjoyed it and thought it had some great footage and was very informative for someone like myself who is contemplating an elephant hunt.
Buzz looks like he'd be a fun guy to hunt ele with.
Some damn fine shooting by some AR members as well.

Unfortunately, I did.
Hopefully he only brings that out for special occasions, like an 80 lber.
My wife would probably enjoy the show, however.

Buzz CharltonMankini aside!- An apology to all that tried to buy my DVD on the website- they were sold out but we have just received a new batch for all 3 dvds and are available on

NavalukBuzz,
I want to order it but I just want to confirm you are not wearing that bright yellow crotch suit at any point in the film. Not trying to put down your lifestyle choices obviously.
Thanks
05 March 2012, 12:11
miketaylorI watched the rest of the DVD the other night. What a great DVD!!! The filming on those charges is amazing thoes guys have balls of steel. I did a bit of filming for Buzz a few years ago, we never got charged but getting up close to elephants still gets the heart pumping.
