All huge, for sure. Not sure which one scores the best, but I like A.

Agreed, C is the buffalo of my dreams. I think he owes me money.

A or C but, C is definitely going to get collected on!

Maybe it's just me and the light, but isn't D a bit soft?

In Tanz I would be shooting A-C now...

I would shoot "B" and be over the moon.

C for me but I would settle for E, F or even Z ! Wink

Prefer B but boss looks maybe soft. Where were these fine beauties. South Africa Farm...but no ear tags?

IMO, D is the highest scoring, but also the youngest...indeed a bit soft.

Too bad there isn't catch and release in hunting, otherwise I'd be selling off everything. Wait, how would I be able to hang those four in a trailer home?

I like the horn shape better on B but I agree he may be a little soft. Like most I think I would take C because he seems fully solid, but a little too much drop for my taste, still it would be C unless I had 15 days left to hunt.

A or C. And at that angle on C, one would have to be very careful not to shoot off his left horn!

I would just stand there staring in awe.


If my PH managed to slap some sense into me, I would probably pay the extra trophy fees and go C then A then B. D looks like he needs bigger bosses but if he gets them he'll be phenomenal.

Fortunately my wife just voted also for B so that's nice for what I m hoping for in August, as long as the boss is good, and I m very very lucky! Means she would accept a pedestal mount (:-) !,!

C has a fantastic shape, and in that situation would be my target, but take a look at D that thing HAS to be around 50 inches but it still is a little young, beautiful bulls!

For the novice African hunter and they guy who wants to shoot mature trophies. C is the mature bull and shooter. A is a maybe , with leaning for shooting, B still needs some time to harden up the front and top, D is a non immature soft boss buf. Needs at least 2 more years for maturity.
But if you are a wannabe then there are your buffalo.
Still remember seeing one in Tanzania just like C and could not make the shot. So massive horns.
