I thought I should share this very recent photo with those on AR that enjoy hunting buffalo up close and personal. The buffalo is from Tanzania. The width for those that like to know about such things is 43.5 inches. The great double rifles are a HEYM .577 NE and Holland & Holland .577 NE. The PH probably does not require an introduction. The hunter gave permission to share this image but does not want his name shared. Those of you that know him please respect his wishes and not post his name in this thread. I hope you enjoy the picture! Shawn Joyce Diizche Safari Adventures P.O.

I would say yes, but many on here will say it was actually shot by MS and his Holland after it was shot in the nads with a .22, which induced a charge. Great job guys on a beautiful bull. I meant to be DSC Member...bad typing skills. Marcus Cady DRSS | |||

I always love the AR crowd. Generally predictable but always a great bunch of men and women! I have to agree with Biebs…if I may take the liberty to paraphrase his sentiments…this is a buffalo of a hunting lifetime for most folks. Best always, Shawn Shawn Joyce Diizche Safari Adventures P.O.

Indeed a very nice buffalo, mature but not old and a high scorer for the gong-hunters. | |||
|
One of Us |
The terrain looks like the Mbarangandu and if it is, would mean the Selous can still produce some surprisingly good mbogo. Going by the lengths of the curls and drops like those, he could score as high as 105/110. | |||

Not sure why you would refer to Mark's client as a clown :0( or Mark for that matter but whatever makes you feel good I suppose. Mark is shooting the HEYM .577 and his client is shooting the Holland & Holland .577 NE. Shawn Joyce Diizche Safari Adventures P.O.

Yes, Shawn, Mike was shooting the L&A. I wish I had seen that one before Jim W. Very accurate and very well built. Mike has a .500 H&H Royal bpe and a box lock Jeffery 8, both of which came from my safe. He is starting out well in the world of double rifles and today I showed him a 12 and a 10 double rifles he may develop an interest in (I'm thinning the herd). Great pics of Mark. Tell me, would it be a fair guess to state Mark has shot more buff over 40 inches in the last 20 years than any other PH? Just wonderin.'

I saw you eyeing that Cafe Diablo my friend. Or was it you watching Joyce work the room after dinner? Sorry we can't make the double rifle shoot my friend. Rather fill the freezer than punch holes in paper. Please tell Rob that Joyce will miss shooting all his ammo and making his barrels glow red.

That is a very interesting question Cal. Mark's clients consistently kill really great trophies. It's fair to say that Mark produces some of the very best buffalo, lions, and leopards wherever he hunts in Tanzania. He does quite well when elephant are on the list as well. Mark works extremely hard to get his clients in front of really great animals. I think some of the images I post from time to time for the folks on AR show that exceptional quality as well.
