Baxter,

Nixon only shoots solids and always recommends them over softs. He says they are better at breaking bones, but the primary reason I
shoot solids when hunting with Nixon is that we are always prepared for Elephant which can appear at any time in his concessions. I just do as he recommends. I have shot four Buffalo now and all with solids.



Very good. Thanks for the extra info. Again, very nice hunt report.

"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."
