MartyWhat does the PH look like after seeing a 70 pounder?
I just downloaded the stills Justin took on my Dande East hunt.
http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/6631094251 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.

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

L. David KeithHaving 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.

It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

tendramsI 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!

BaxterBI 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.
