Which most of all shows correct bullet placement, along with lot's of close-up kill shots.
Less talking with more hunting.

Which one do you reccomend?

I just got 'Big Botswana Tuskers' by John Calitz and it's pretty damn good. Disc one on 'Boddington on Elephant' is full of exciting hunts too.

Get both the Craig Boddington and Buzz Charlton
DVD's. They compliment each other very well and are a wealth of information.

The Boddington DVD is good, but if I was just going to get one, I would get Buzz Charlton's DVD. Make life easy though, buy both. Only bad thing about Buzz's DVD is middle aged men wearing sleeveless shirts . . . got to have a strong stomach to watch that.

Both Boddington/Carter and Charlton are very good and I'm sure you will find them helpful.

Will, where's the pink shirt?

BTW, best elephant hunting videos I have seen were of NE450#2's! Just the best!

Add to those an old one HUNTERS and IVORY It has pleanty of ele taking very close shots, and some good shooting by hunters from all over the world, with every kind of elephant rifle ever made. One big German hunter uses a Heym 470NE double with a Illuminated scope attached, and he can shoot it too!

Charlton McCallum dvd is exceptional for shot placement, etc. It is my first choice.

Boddington is also helpful in a different way. If I were forced to only have one it would be Charlton McCallum.
