AUSTRALIA: Australia Buffalo & Banteng With A Rusa To Top It Off
What a hunting trip. Karl Goodhand was definitely the outfitter to put us on some great trophies. Comfortable camp with good food in the bush. I'm also going to include my hunting buddy's buffalo. I believe it ended up being the new #2 SCI record.

I did a hunt there some years ago, and will be returning again with one on of my doubles and my son. I hunted with Matt Graham sadly he died quite young of a heart attack. My final bag was 18 buffalo, 5 boar and a scrub bull.
We were truly in the back of beyond in east Arnhemland.

I hunted with Matt Kelman of Australia wide safaris at Carmor Plains station in 2015. I Had a great week there. Two buffalo and four pigs. One afternoon I took a Northern Territories McNab. A boar, a barramundi and a brace of magpie geese. I don't think I will ever manage a Mc Nab in Scotland. I would have definitely recommended Matt and Carmor Plains to you. Sadly I read that Carmor Plains was sold a few years ago.

I knew you couldn't resist!
I've hunted a few Buff, but didn't have to travel to the Northern Territory. We had a bloke bought some down here to Northern NSW. He was going to raise them for meat. Anyway, it didn't work for a number of reasons and they went feral and began knocking down fences and behaving badly. He asked us to come out and cull the troublemakers. I had a 9.3x62 at the time, and it worked well on the Buff, but I had shot a couple before with a 308. My Grandfather used to hunt them on horseback using a Winchester 44/40, mainly for the hides. The meat is really good, deep rich red and not too fatty. I think those Buff are all shot out now, but still mobs of 'em in the Territory.

I hunted buff with Bruce Bertram & his son in the late '90s. Bruce had a permit for a croc, which he got.
