ZIMBABWE: 10 Day Non-Trophy Buffalo Hunt

[Wishfulthinker580]

Correct, first African hunt

Nice. Like spiket said great start

 

[Cme1983]

These buffalo are exportable

Langers, what is the difference between trophy and non trophy in the “SW Lowveld”? Is it anything other than width?

 

[Oil & Dirt]

Awesome hunt. Thanks for sharing

My question as well. They sure look like trophies to me

AH - Well Done Mate! Congratulations on a successful Safari in Zim. Thanks for sharing the report and the photos. I still have to wait a few more weeks and counting...

Great hunt and report. What made you choose April?

 

[PARA45]

Correct, it's due to horn size. 38" and up is considered a trophy bull.
Thank you and I agree, I am extremely happy with all 3 bulls.

@Aussie_Hunter had already answered the question.

 

[Zim Fan]

You can never go wrong spending time with Dave. A wonderful person, besides being a fantastic PH.

Hunting those old Bulls is a fantastic hunt. Especially in the thick stuff with Charity and Thomas working the track sometimes for hours.

Mostly because that's the dates that lined up for myself with work and the PH. But also I don't mind hunting the thick stuff I am used to it. And the buffalo are alot physically bigger early season just after the wet so it's great to see big bodied heavy animals.

Congrats and thanks for the report.

After I get a PG hunt under my belt, I definitely want to do a Cape Buff hunt.

All three are trophies in my eyes.Old and hard bosses make a trophy for me.

I would think non trophy would be anything under 35 inches
