Justin,
re your comment.
i know plenty of cape and asiatic buff have been taken with traditional gear, but, have cape buff been taken with selfbow or wood lam bows?
very interested to hear more? bow type? poundage? arrow weight?

Howard Hill took a buffulo with a bamboo laminated longbow (about 90#), cedar arrows (about 700 gr) and a Hill head.
And if anyone is willing to help me pay for tags, I'm gladly try it >:D
Justin Snyder:
I cant remember where I read them all, but Jeff Challacombe, Alan Perez, used lam wood bows. Paul Brunner used a 74# fg longbow, but used diamond wood arrows.

I hear you Kegan if it has a heartbeat.. I will hunt it... the meaner the critter the more exciting the adventure..Hawk

Keegan, was the howard hill a bamboo backed wood lam, or bamboo lam glass bow? he was a strong man hey :)
Justin, are you talking about Jeff Challacombe from oz? as he has not taken one with an all wood, but has seen one hit with a 90# osage selfy that was a mis hit and was finished by rifle.
i don't doubt at all that it can be done, just not sure if it has. plenty have been taken with glass bows.
