Stephen GoldfinchPAC Buff
Ladies and Gentlemen,
One of Shiawela's Buffalo bulls has become very aggresive and needs to be killed. He is seen on a daily basis, and aggresively attacks vehicles and people. He WILL charge, no doubt. He has put multiple holes in our vehicles, and to be quite honest we're sick of him. For full disclosure, this animal has been herded into a 5 hectre boma to avoid any more dangerous encounters until the hunt. He will be released back on the main 10,000 before the hunt takes place. Trust me though, once you find his tracks, he'll find you. We have guestimated him at between 34" and 36" from looking up close when he's goring the trucks. The hunt needs to take place as soon as possible.
Other plains game can be taken at regular prices when your buff hunt is over. If you're interested in a shot at a gold-metal waterbuck, this is your place. Our trip in December yielded a 35" beast. Dont pass on that opportunity.

Deal breaker!

jcarrHe only excluded "obscene", one can assume then that "excessive" is perfectly acceptable.

reddy375He sounds like a dangerous beast, so some excessive alcohol might be required to get a hunters courage up before one faces him

Equinsu OchaI've stayed on Ken and JoAnn's place.. Beautiful property. We hunted kudu north of there up towards Messina/Beit Bridge and we used their place as a home base. Great folks, the Balls.

Correct Sir. Ergo, the use of obscene.

Not much different than what Arnold Payne was offering.
Not my cupt of tea I am afraid.
Stephen,
Welcome to AR.
Are you the booking agent for this outfit?

Stephen GoldfinchSaeed,
I am not the booking agent. I have an ownership interest in the outfit and help with some of the logistics and marketing. I understand its not for everyone, and that's why I posted with full disclosure. However, if you saw the attitude of this buff, I think you would understand. No one wants a really pissed off buffalo ruining a good hunt. And like I said, he will be released back onto the main property before the hunt. Not that it matters, though, because he's going to find you as soon as you get close. And BTW, I dont agree with the way the buff was offered by Arnold. I think this is a different story considering he's been living wild, and was only put in a boma for our guest's protection. He wasn't darted and put in some boma because he's exceptional. He was herded into a boma because he's a liability and is going to kill someone. That's not unfair or unethical, in fact, its the antithesis of that. Anyway, thanks for the welcome. Hope you're well, and thanks for the DVD. It was great.

CaptMikeStephen, nothing wrong with the way you posted this hunt. You were up front with the circumstances and while this hunt may not be for everyone, no shame on someone who takes you up on it.
