Green. Absolutely.
Actually, green might be a bit low. I put the second shot into my bull standing almost straight on at that level. The bullet missed his heart and exited at back end of rib cage smashing his left knee. Possibly deflected when it hit him but no significant bone structure in his chest. He spun around in place about three times, sat on his butt, tipped over, and it was all over. First shot broadside did the mortal damage. Blew up both lungs and major blood vessel(s) above the heart.

Green for initial shot

Blue during a charge and only when the Cape buffalo is under seven yards away and has lowered it’s horns for impaling you

I hunted elephant with Luke Samaris in 2005. It was my fourth safari and I tell you he is a fine gentleman the best. I got the opportunity to meet Patty Curtis, although never hunted with him but enjoyed our conversation around our tent in the Selous. Very sad for a tough guy to leave this world the way he did. Let’s pray the murderers are caught. I hope to see Luke in Nashville.
