Cape Buffalo with a longbow. Let the adventure begin!

It was quartered away. I have the video of the shot, but can’t post it. It was awesome!!! One of the coolest things I’ve ever witnessed done with a trad bow! Pictures don’t do them justice as far as showing how big they are. You should have seen the front end loader they used to pick it up!!!!!

Not much way between those, even if you are a great "finesse" shooter. Again, no history with said animal, but I can't help but think you are more than ample in equipment and gear. Best to you, and looking forward the the remainder of the journey.Originally posted by Bisch View PostIt was quartered away. I have the video of the shot, but can’t post it. It was awesome!!!

The odds of getting an arrow in one of these critters and NOT hitting a rib going in are very low. If they are quartered away a touch with the front leg forward, it does open up an area about the size of a cantaloupe that would allow arrow entry in without hitting a rib, but puts you at risk of hitting the shoulder bone.
Tim's shot on his buffalo was absolutely 100% PERFECT! He hit the sweetspot! I'll try and get the video uploaded. My last video wouldn't load

I did not get the titanium adapters just yet. I bought the new preassembled heads they started selling to make sure they flew good, then planned on getting the titanium inserts and new heads at that point. Definitely agree on the cheap insurance part, especially seeing that rib bone with a broadhead sticking out of it!
