Equinsu OchaCape buffalo mount
It isn't very often I get to mount one of my own trophies, but I made time in these last couple of weeks to get my Cape buffalo and Aussie water buffalo mounted..finally!
I took this old timer bull back in 2010 in Zimbabwe with my Chapuis 470NE. It was probably the most laid back, insanely fun hunt I have ever been on. Went with 2 good buddies on their 1st trips and we stacked some great trophies and had the times of our lives.
I'll share the Aussie buff once I get all the finish work done.
Hope you guys enjoy!

That is a really nice mount.
