![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2019/10/full-31380-203690-20191007_063202.jpg) What a hunt. We chased this bull in the heat all day. One of the five bulls had a bad attitude. We must have got in on the bulls 12 times before the opportunity was right. Finally on the last stalk there were only two bulls to contend with. We slipped quietly to 50 yards in the extreme cover and shot this big bodied bull. First shot and he never got up. Two assurance shots late and it was picture time. I am very sore and very tired. Bossie Mostert did a great job getting on this particular bull. Safe and secure at the lodge celebrating now. Tomorrow the saga continues. I am very blessed to be with Limpopo Big Game Safaris in South Africa.

Thanks. He is a stud. I was looking for big body and big hard bosses.

Well done, Bryan! If you're tired and sore when your buff is in the salt, you did it right. Lekker!

great bull and excited to see you got to hunt with Bossie. he is so much fun to hunt with and put me on every animal i wanted, even if he did make me work my butt off to do it 
Stuff my dad said in the deer blind
"I can dive deeper and come up drier"
"did you do that?"

I am still in shock with the size of my cape buffalo. The horns are beautiful but the 2200 lbs plus body just blows my mind. This is not the biggest buffalo taken on this property but it was a great adventure with a truly extraordinary outfitter. He did get me everything on my list and more.
