I'm looking for a good resolution photo of this buff. Any help is appreciated. I think it's a awesome buff.

Not my style preference in really big buff horns.I like the very heavy boss and a deep drop-some spread too but it doesn't have to be that much.

He is dead by now.

Worm-ridden first, and then rotted away.

Like the best of them throughout history.

Still, we can dream.

Took this photo in Ngorongoro in 2007

Unfortunately I didn't have a telephoto lens or a hi-res camera at the time.

There would have been no need to walk that far - anything and everything you wanted was within easy reach...... unless you wanted to walk with Burton, Speke and Livingstone. Wink

I'm impressed by the shear mass of the horns on the first bull. The way the boss comes down close to the eyes the front to back width of the boss must be tremendous.
