48" Buffalo
My PH from last year Piet Fourie sent me this pic, the bufflo is a 48 incher collected in Luke Samaras's Masailand area. I don't know if this has been posted here before but it is such a nice trophy that I wanted to share it with AR members.

There are those that do, those that dream, and those that only read about it and then post their "expertise" on AR!

Magnificent.

What put him down? Looks like a BRNO.

It is too nice a buffalo to have been stopped by any normal safari rifle. It was no doubt shot with a .45-70 loaded with Garrett ammo. Nothing else would have stopped him you know!

AZ, don't go in
dec. that's when the big bulls come out of the park and it could get scary. Plus I'm way to jealous, good luck!

Now thats a buffalo, well done Piet. Now look at the message posted in the discount hunt section about a 50 incher in Zimbabwe for $100000.
Piets buff is legit and shot in Tanzania and I bet it did not cost 100K, He is an excellent hunter.
