I just downloaded the stills Justin took on my Dande East hunt.

This is Buzz's face a moment after we didn't get a shot at Mr. Big. He was estimated at over 70.


I didn't get to see all of him, but the look on Buzz's face told me how big he was. If you are hunting and your PH looks like this, you know this is something serious.

You sure he had not just caught a glimpse of Justin in the "mankini"?

Having known Buzz for only 3 years, I must say that is the first time I seen a look of shock on his face. Very good Marty, his expression does say it all.

"Peace is that brief glorious moment in history when everybody stands around reloading" - Thomas Jefferson

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

"If you're being chased by a Lion, you don't have to be faster than the Lion, you just have to be faster than the person next to you."

I'll take a stab at the bubble above his head:

"BLOOD HELL! THERE GOES A CORKER OF A TIP RUNNING DEAD AWAY AT FULL SPEED!"

I have seen that look on the face of another well-known PH. I was hunting 2x1 that day and he literally slammed the breaks on the cruiser and started shouting "WHO WANTS A BUSHBUCK!" over and over. I got out, walked 20 feet, shot it...and he went RW top 5 as I recall.

The above photo is indeed priceless!

I was thinking that Buzz snapped a twig and the ele ran off in a crash of thunder. The look is his attempt to come up with an excuse to the guy with he gun...

Hook, I could be wrong but I dont believe they use any malt in those corn squeezins you peddle.
