A Dugga Tale
| A Dugga Tale - "For the last 4 months I have been obsessing about shooting a cape buffalo with a compound bow. I have shot 3 buff previously with the rifle and this was naturally the next challenge.We had two goes at it after I totally messed up the shot on the first day at 45 yards and we could not get close enough again. After locating a heard of over 800 on the second day we had to wait over 2 hours for the wind to blow hard enough so we could start our stalk. After an hour we were within 55 yards of the back of the heard with them feeding away from us into the wind. We had to make a move and quickly so we started crawling alongside them for about another 45 min. We came to within 17 yards of the closest female and two old dagga boys were lying down at 25 and 33 yards (at least 100 buff visible). We sat there waiting for about 30 min before this guy eventually stood and presented an opportunity.Once again I pulled the shot much to far back but luckily he gave me another go and I hit him exactly where I had to at 30 yards. Ancient old bull." - Morgan O'Kennedy |
