I've dreamed of hunting buffalo all my life. Im 44 now and have only hunted whitetails in my home state of Ohio. Im having a hard time saving enough to get out west and hunt elk and mule deer. So the odds are I'll never get to hunt Africa but at least I can live vicariously through stories like this one . This was a great episode, thanks buddy 👍

[@Thebiggamehuntingblog]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@starnavigator6665]

I’m in the same boat as you…. I’m a bit younger tho….. I finally have gotten my two rifle battery ( have no idea why it’s called that?) together and have taken a part time job to help add to the savings to hopefully get there!!

[@starnavigator6665]

Oh yeah lol I’m a native buckeye!!!

[@TheRealKlinky]

Never give up on your dreams gents...I'm in Zimbabwe & I'd love for you to come hunting here one day👍🇿🇼

I am old now 68 years old, I taken a number of financial hits in my working life. I hunted quite a bit, Alaska Monatan Wyoming, Texas up in Canada and one Safari early in my life. I was offered a choice a British Sports car for a graduation gift or African Safari, I took the hunting trip. I been chopping on the bit ever since to go back. Just was not in the cards. I love hunting white tails, and since I got a bit of land here in CT I got a very long season with archery starting in Sept, then Rifle season( landowner) November and Decenber, then another month in January archery should I choose to. I take great joy in the meals I cook. I am looking to buy a new Ruger Made Marlin 336 in 30-30, Ohio is a great place to hunt white tail deer, you are very lucky its your home state. You become an accomplished deer hunter. That is a good goal for you.

I have hunted Cape Buffalo in South Africa, in the area north of Kimberely, Northern Cape. I have used .375 H&H using 300gr Swift A-Frame bullets and also .458 Win Mag using a 500 gr Bonded DGX.

[@Thebiggamehuntingblog]

Sounds like some good set-ups! I assume they worked well?

“Survived with a 303in it’s heart, for years…” There’s tough and there’s Buffalo tough!

[@tayronachan]

Interesting conversation about herd management and needing to leave some older buffalo for breeding.

[@Almate3006]

I did hunt buff. In Cameroon then in Uganda and finnally in ZA i've used 340 weatherby in Cameroun 375 HH in Uganda and 416 Rigby in ZA.

Exc cartridges

[@erickelly5395]

i've researched hunting in africa a lot lately. i will probably do the plains hunt first because it is cheaper. buffalo hunts are around $15k. that would be a one time thing for me.

[@Thebiggamehuntingblog]

That's a really good way of doing it.

[@eddieweigel9490]

The stories are fantastic

[@finallyfriday.]

Very fine video.

[@billhendon1017]

Awesome! Thanks!!

[@Thebiggamehuntingblog]

You bet!

[@mussersbowsboatsandscience6610]

I have archrey hunted Cape Buffalo. Wish I had the money to hunt them more often.

[@Almate3006]

I have read severas books of Doctari and I understand his opinión about Sci measure sistem but on the other hand I think that being buff hunt so expensive is only natural that a client that probably only hunt hunts a buff in his life would like to get a trophy that has both width and nice curving horns not just an old Bull with worn out horns if you have that King of Police is better to have a sistem like they have in ZA you pay according to trophy size.

[@Thebiggamehuntingblog]

Yeah, he doesn't really discuss this aspect of things in this video, but he specifically says in a different interview that he thinks there should be a pricing structure for buffalo that goes along with his recommended scoring system where the old worn down/broken bulls are significantly less expensive than those that score really high.

"Satan Mombe"... 🤣 🤣🤣

[@joetamaccio9475]

I have a good rifle , but the Cape buffalo is better than I am
