Anyone hear how Myles McCallum is doing by now?
I saw on TV that Myles was run over by a buffalo.
He was flown out of the area, but I have not heard anything more about it.
Just wondering?

Are you looking at a recent TV piece? There's a post on Africa Hunting back in July 23 that says basically same thing.

I saw it just recently on a"Hornady's Dark & Dangerous" TV show.
Myles client wounded a buff and when they found it, Myles was literally run over by it..! It looked pretty bad.
I was just wondering how he was doing? Maybe I will try to contact Myles and his partner, Buzz.?
Thank you for your response.

As of about a week ago he was doing fine, we hunted with him last year and he had fully recovered.

I saw Myles last month.
Physically he is fine. Just had another close call with a buffalo.

I just spoke to Buzz about 2 hours ago and asked how everyone is doing, specifically mentioning Myles. He said everyone is doing great.

I'm thinking the video you saw was the one from 2023 that happened shortly before my October Safari with them that year.

Thanks, guy for the update! Much appreciated.

You're probably right Todd, regarding the dates. It did not state when this had occurred on the show.

My partner, some years ago now, had Myles as his PH and commented what a gentleman he was then.

Thanks again! Good luck to all this coming season.

In Zim I spoke to Myles face to face some months post the buffalo incident and physically he appeared completely fine. His rifle at the time, I believe, was a heavy cal bolt action and he was making moves to acquire a suitable double expressly for buffalo backup.


Hunting.... it's not everything, it's the only thing.
