Since I was a small boy my lifelong dream was to shoot a Cape buff with a Recurve. Economic times and my health have not made that possible. As a younger man I was in fantastic physical condition and Instructed Judo for many years. My injuries have put a halt to my dream.
Marty when I watched your video I had tears in my eyes and I did live that hunt with you .I couldn't imagine the flow of emmotions you felt.I know what I felt for you and your hunt and I as a hunter are so honored you shared this moment for all us. Thank you Marty.

Nice buff, BUFF!  I'm on the brink of giving up yet again but your story has given me the will to keep on trying.

Great dugga boy, great shot and great video! Wish it was me. One day I hope to make it to Africa. Buffalo is at the top of my list, then Kudu.

Congratulations and thanks for sharing it with us.
