Water Buffalo Hunting Safaris Photo Gallery 2015

This bull has attitude. With his head held high, he is showing aggressive behaviour. A charge is not imminent, however best to have the rifle ready.

This bull approaches us slowly

The hunter has just fired his double rifle. The bull is just visible in the brush, standing broadside.

The last stand! This bull is mortally wounded.

A great situation for double rifle hunters! This buffalo bull is no doubt considering his options. Turn and run or charge!

Another great old buffalo bull taken by US hunter, Mr Aaron Finch. 100 SCI points. Good bases and good length.

This buffalo bull is superb. He is less than 8 years old but already well over 52 inches wide.

Successful hunters returning with their trophy across the floodplains. Note the buffalo in the forground watching from a distance.

A huge bodied bull, probably around 800kg with a very nice curl. Taken by Mr Andy Taylor from the UK.

The follow up! Tall vegetation and a good blood trail, it doesn’t get better than this!

The hard earned success of a dangerous follow up in thick stuff. This style of hunting is what we specialize in!

A great young buffalo bull of only 5-6 years. In 4 years he will be a huge.

Great old bull, 10+ years old. 19 inch bases! Taken by Australian hunter Mr Nick McCracken in April at the end of the wet season.

2 double rifles, thick bush and a huge bull of over 100 SCI. Hard to beat that! This bull took a pounding with over 8 shots required to bring him down.

This huge old buffalo cow taken by Mr Jakub Abramczyk was extremely tough. Persistence and some difficult tracking over 2 days paid off in the end.

A beautiful sunny afternoon on the floodplains at Carmor Plains at the end of the wet season. The grass is starting to dry and these young buffalo bulls are big and fat!

A great old buffalo bull taken by Mr Diego Marques from Spain. This old bull is probably 14 years old.

A huge buffalo bull 102 SCI, taken by Mr Jason Dirscherl, USA with a 470 NE double rifle

500 grain Woodleigh solid from a 470 NE, passed right through a buffalo bull and then buried itself in this tree 50 yards behind the buffalo. Great penetration!!

Woodleigh 500 grain 470 NE projectile that slammed into this tree after passing through a big buffalo bull with no deformation… that is a quality bullet!

Taking a break during the hunt

Very pretty bull taken at close range by Mr Jason Dirscherl, USA. Rifle is a Merkel 470 NE

This old bull has heaps of character, probably 16 years old. This is a real trophy animal. Note the greenery due to the wet season.. my favourite time for buffalo hunting!

A very impressive old buffalo cow with unusual drooping horns.

Trophy buffalo don’t get a lot more impressive than this one. Extremely heavy horns and a spread of 48 inches, you can hunt long and hard and not beat this old bull. He doesn’t quite make 100SCI, but his width and mass make for a better trophy. Sometimes the record book doesn’t matter. Jason Volmer, USA took this great bull in March with a 9.3×74 double rifle.

My 470 NE Verney Carron double rifle. It is a beautifully made French rifle that shoots well.

This pretty bull with nice long tips and good symmetry was taken at less than 15 yards by Marty Barber USA with a 9.3×74 double rifle.

This bull is 48 inches wide with bases 18-19 inches thick. He is the bull of any buffalo hunters dreams!

This young bull hesitates and looks back at the camera before sneaking into thick brush.

Paul Barstad USA took this old bull with a 375H&H.; The bull is 16 years old or more. The great scallops in the horns show his age and add to his character.

This wide buffalo, (over 50 inches) was taken by Marty Barber out in the flood plains at Carmor Plains during the wet season!

David Gitlitz took this massive bull in January, during the wet season. 101 SCI

Mr Vermuelen, Australia hunted this huge bodied bull carrying tremendous horns of 100SCI+ in a thick patch of jungle at Carmor Plains. This bull took no less than 9 shots with a 375 H&H; and 9.3×74 double rifle. Stalking big bulls of this size in thick bush is often quite an adventure with the hunter becoming the hunted!

Mr Versch with a fantastic buffalo taken at Carmor Plains in May, with a double rifle. This bull has a horn width of 54 inches!

Mr Versch from Germany again, with a big floodplain bull. These bulls will often weigh 800kg or more. They are generally bigger and heavier than the bulls living in the forests, due to the abundance of grass on these wetlands.

Mr Shaffer, USA with a great old bull that charged us. At around 6 yards the 470 NE roared, he turned and took the 2nd barrel behind the shoulder, the rest is history.. and buffalo jerky!

Mr Shaffer, USA, with another close range bull taken with a 470 double rifle at less than 15 yards. Hunting just doesn’t get better than this!

Mr Frawley, Australia with a huge floodplain bull at Carmor Plains. Kevin is not a small guy, but check out how big this bull is in the neck and shoulders! The horns don’t look that long… because they are immensely thick and the bulls body size makes them look smaller. This is one hell of a bull.

Another massive floodplain bull at Carmor Plains. Taken by Mr Murray, USA

This is a great photo of an old buffalo bull. No less than 14 years old, he is a true trophy animal.
