Record Buffalo Hunted in Benin

My friend from Benin, Patrick Martin sent me the picture of the biggest buffalo shot since 1974!!!!!! 36 inch wide, should be the new number 1 SCI and Rowland Ward.

A beautiful old bull with nice worn down horns, amazing because after 9 years of hard hunting there the biggest I shot was 32 inch.

Stunning old bull, Christophe. Congrats to your friend Patrick and thanks for sharing images of this old warrior.
 
Terrific old bull!
 
A nice one.
Congratulations.

Wow, what an incredible trophy Christophe!
 
Just look at the battle scars of this old bull...anyone looking would be envious...great job...
 
As you can see in this close up, his right eye is very swollen and from the gash in his right brow bone, it seems that he received a big blow there, most probably while fighting... surely an old warrior!

I'd rather take this old bull than a "green" boss measuring 40". This is a real trophy... a beauty! You can be a very happy chappie. Congrats!
 
There's a rumor your guys ran it down with a truck...

J/K nice old bull and definitely a real trophy due to the age and character. What were you shooting (cartridge info)?

I don't know I was not there. How do you know that? Can you explain?
Thanks

HI all, here is a Short update on our America trip, I currently in Houston and have 2 more meetings here before movings North toward Oklahoma, Missouri and Iowa, and from there I will head to Colorado and Idaho,I have been met with great hospitality and friendship, and have met several new and old clients and we are going to book the rest of 2025 season quick and have several dates booked for 2026!
That's a wrap, on our first hunt of this years season.

Hunting conditions are a bit tougher in South Africa during the month of February, but can be just as rewarding if done right.
