A buffalo hunt in the Timbavati: an African hunting story...for when you can't be there (African Hunting Stories Book 11)

Hunting the Southern Buffalo, 'nyati' or Africa’s Black Death is a serious undertaking.
There are those who are just lucky, those who flinch horribly and finally those who hand over to another.
All of these have 'Nyati' on the wall at home.
Then, there are those who have perished, some with honour, some confused and some fearful and unable to make the shot that would have made the difference.
All of these have 'Nyati' on the wall at home.
Then there are those who are driven, are adventurous, tough in spirit, steady under fire and busy counting the days. These men and woman are still to follow the paths into Africa's savannah and woodlands. These are still to find the shiny, wet dung on the track at their feet and wait while their guide measures time to an encounter that will change them forever.
Is it you who stands with gloves stiff and breath hanging in the cold air and shuffling closer to the fire pit, dry mouthed waiting for coffee? Perhaps you half hear the conversation around you, until the moment a pocket of warm air spills from the thicket at the camp's edge, bringing with it the unmistakable smell of buffalo.
You are in 'Nyati' country and for miles in all directions the great herds move and somewhere out there, under the unforgiving African sun the outcome of your battle in the thickets has yet to be decided.
