georgeldWOW!
Hope you guys let a few of those "pups" grow up til I get there!
Would like to hang one like that on my wall here. Don't know where I'd find space but, I'd build another wall if I had too.
Thanks for sharing Sarg, great horns there.

DoglegMark,
Looks like you had a good season up at Gan Gan. I went back to Dorisvalle this year, taking my son along for feral culling and the way it turned out his first buffalo too. I picked up another buff and scrubber as well.
Booked to go back in August 2014, if you happen to be in the area.

SargHey Mike
I heard you had a good run at Dorisvalle & the boy did well to, I think that Big Scrub Bull is awesome congratulations to you both !
I did a bit back there later in the year & wish you had been with me when I saw one of the biggest Buff I have seen in years when I was out shooting bait, raced back to get my Boar hunting client, but he would not shoot another Buff, I don't think I would have that trouble with you LoL !!
Hope to catch you next time .

SaeedTypical of an operation run by Matt!
Shooting such baby buffalo!
Just look at that HAIR on their bosses!

Don't you guys ever shoot hard bossed buffalo any more?
Do these make SCI Inner Circles?
We need to see photos of their balls covered in ticks.
If the don't have any ticks on their balls then they are far too you to shoot.
Just ask Tony

Probably wouldn't have had to much trouble talking me into anything buffalo related. Even a cough cough spear cough cough.

BakesCheck out this chunky fella. Picture sent to me by a mate in the NT.
Little bit soft in the Bosses but hey Saeed

A mate of mine has just told me he's shagging his girlfriend and her twin. I said "How can you tell them apart?" He said "Her brother's got a moustache!"

Well yes I'm sure they all make a SCI some thing or other !
We have plenty of hard bossed, tick covered ball Bulls, but I have a Devil of a job getting that Bloody rope on they legs when they get to that size/age !! LoL !
Bakes, Looks to be a young Bull to me !

We are proud of you Tony.
Walter has done a great teaching the ways of the safari hunters.
I am watching a movie with Hessa.
She says hello.

DoglegDang, on closer inspection there's a rash of soft bossed 2013 HA bulls. The more I look the worse it gets. I wonder if it's too late to demand a refund?

How about an apology and a promise that an animal like that will never happen again!!

17 November 2013, 17:33
DoglegThat will do; just as long as you're sorry and promise that it doesn't happen again.

BakesThat is a nice scrubber

Scrubber? They told me it was a two point unicorn. What gives Matt?
18 November 2013, 01:33
Matt GrahamThey are called scrubber east of the Stuart Hwy!! Ummm..... slightly different subspecies....

18 November 2013, 02:30
DoglegLocal names are so confusing; thanks for straightening that out. I was a little concerned for a second, and was even starting to wonder about the antlerless (non-trophy) unicorns too. Sorry I doubted you.
Will this naming issue affect my application for the SCI Seventh Circle of Hell medallion? How about the Grand Slam?

505GI had to beat Nakihunter to it !!!
(While on that subject, I saw those Indian Water buffalo on a program Sunday night, didn't look much different to ours except for the horn shape !!!. the photographer was patting it on it's nose so I don't know what Nakihunter was going on about

).

Dont say that he'll have conniptions... Im sure it was one of those lowly domestic ones!!
We have some of the same horn shapes as those arnee animals out here... I find it very hard to believe that there is any significant genetic difference...

A good taxidermist can fix that right up.

stradlingit all looks like the right stuff to me
mates
Anyway it matters not, because my experience always has been that of---- a loss of snot and enamel on both sides of the 458 Win----

georgeldSure looks like the bull across the fence when I was shooting prairie dogs a few yrs ago out here in Colorado.
Good one, thanks for sharing. Did you eat him?
