Mike, that's a very impressive bull--several actually, and amazing footage. Thanks for the link.

I have played a litle with photoshop and if we could trust the modern technology this is what came out - if we can agree on 32 between ears, then this buff would go 47, maybe a couple inches more if angles arent aligned:

Anyway there are some nice buff in the footage even the one at the end. Except that when the lions finally drop the buff it's a different one.

Unfortunately for all us trophy hunters when we watch nature scenes like this we can see that the predators suddenly have a different prey.

The guys making the movies better watch out for us.

I always try to use enough gun but then sometimes a brainshot works just as good.

Some nice Buff for sure.
At the end it was a cow not the Bull that was filmed being brought down.

Nice detective work, mouse. Good footage too in spite of the pea and shell game. Wiedmanshiel

Although cartridge selection is important there is nothing that will substitute for proper first shot placement. Good hunting, "D"

Always amazed at some of the great footage downloaded on Youtube! I can spend some serious time surfing lions, buffs and ellies different folks have caught on film. Some hunts, some docudramas, most entertaining.

On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
Or walk with Kings - nor lose the common touch...
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
And - which is more - you'll be a Man, my son!
- Rudyard Kipling
