Someone sent this to me from-I believe an Instagram post called natureismetal. I assume he got busted off in a fight but the blood still squirting from his horn is fascinating.

Looks like he got his a$$ kicked. LOL!!!!!
 
This looks like an oooold buffalo. Old warrior! great photo!
 
Wow! Thanks for sharing
 
WOW not so sure he wasn’t hit by a truck
 
Not sure, but this old veteran from the Rigby site shows the healing process, the bone protrudes. What a trophy! There is a wonderful write up on this very hunt, I cant find it for you, but search Rigby.

I've seen cows get horns knocked off like that and they bled just like that. They eventually clotted up and were fine . Gotta take a lot of force to break a buffs horn!!
 
Remember in HATARI when the buff charges their jeep, knocks it back about 4 feet! No horn damage. And I think it was actually a cow judging by the thin horns.

Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx

I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.

Thanks
Mike
hi, do you know about lions hunters, leopard hunters, and crocodiles hunters of years 1930s-1950s
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
