Water Buffalo Question?

I can find al kinds of photos and drawing of Cape Buffalo with aiming points superimposed.
Can I assume they are the same for Water Buffalos?

same design, different model

Of course the horns configuration is different. The water buffalo can be brain shot with a side shot where a cape buffalo's protect it by sweeping down.

I never really thought about the side brain shot before but yes those horns have it covered on a Cape Buffalo but not on a Water Buffalo.
Thanks for bringing that to my attention!

It's strange how nature thought about these side brain shots a few million years ago.
She must have a bloody good crystal ball
