I have only know one person who hunted a buffalo, his account was something like this, " I drove the pick-up into the field, stopped at about 75 yards, got out set up a tripod, & shot a nice cow." he also said,, " there was absolutely no thrill to it, and will never do it again". I may be way off base!!! but this is what he told me & I have no reason to disbelieve him. also he said it was very expensive (out of state) & he hired people to dress out & render the animal. msn
