All I got is a big WOW!!!!  Thanks for sharing.  For the 99+% of us that will never have this type of experience, I take my hat off to ya for letting us tag along with ya.  Great storyline and very detailed photos.  Congrats on your success; both with the kill and surviving the charge.

God bless.

Wow! And to think my biggest adventures are stalking black bears in Cohutta or driving through Atlanta on a Friday afternoon...

if I ever get to Oz to visit a couple friends...I hope to have the time and opportunity to chase after some buffs as well....maybe not quite as exciting as your adventure but an adventure nonetheless...

Andy,

Thanks for sharing.  Think this might be a new hunt for my bucket list....2014 or 2015 are still open   :rolleyes:
The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.

Thanks, unexpectedly Iv just spent another 7 days up in remote northern Arnhem Land helping a buddy of mine with a Buff hunt, His partner could not make the trip after putting a VPA 3blade through his hand 2 days before they where scheduled to fly out. He Killed 3 great bulls.

Hunt hard....

Feeding lots of mouths from the last trip.
