I took this picture at Lake Nakuru National Park in Kenya about 20 years ago. The question is, which one would you shoot? I'm torn, but I think I'd shoot the one on the left. How about you?

I think the one on the left for me too. Love that drop
 
As someone who has two cows and wants a bull? Whichever one gives me the best shot first.

I like the one on the right myself, though I realize that's entirely subjective.

@Muting the Goat: either Buffalo would be fine for me - I’d shoot whichever one presented the easiest shot…. For me, there would be no reason to over analyze “which one” - both are fine Buffalo, better then any I’ve ever seen, neither are World Records… Make a good shot - be proud, take photos and be Extremely HAPPY !

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?
