Boddington idle curiosity questions

I have hunted over 100 buffalo. I even took a few of them. Hunting is a passion, killing not so much.

For virtually anyone who hunts a great deal, eventually very little outside of photographs comes home.

On the red dot mount…my first thought was to get it as low as possible to the bore. I didn’t think about the co-witness iron sights until @rookhawk mentioned it, but it makes sense.

I will add to my previous post. My most memorable hunts were the ones where the buffalo was hunting me or us.

There is nothing more on this earth than to be able (which I am not) to hunt one last buffalo, just not sure if I would pull the trigger. The buff would just call it a cull hunt.

Kevin Peacock is coming for the night if Caruthers is up to it.

I recently hunted buff with Boddington (hunt report is posted here). He does not take all of them home and in fact, enjoys shooting older buff that don't score well. He likes the age and character of them...also sound biology for doing so. On my hunt, he had one of his doubles with iron sights and took a nice older buff and I don't think it was being shipped to him. In fact, his buff from the year before there was sitting in the lodge as a euro mount. The trophy is the experience and he has no need for over 100 buff trophies at home.
