Title: Water Buffalo Point Blank DVD release
Post by: Dsturgisjr on April 11, 2008, 09:49:00 AM
Darryl has been busy editing last winter. Water Buffalo Point Blank is about our Melville Island hunt in Australia's Northern Territory. It features Don Thomas, Dale Karch and myself. The late, great Bill Baker guides and provides back up and there is a tribute to him at the end.

If you like the thought of stalking dangerous game you should enjoy this one. We hope to have it availible in a month or so. Special thanks to 3Rivers Archery and TradGang for making the production possible.  :)

Looks like a "must have" Denny. The look in the eyes of the Buff on the cover is concentrated malevolence. Looks like a great way to seperate the chicken salad from the chicken ****.

Yes 3Rivers will have them availible.

Al, Made me sad to see Bill on tv and know we can't hunt together again for now. I treasure the times we had though.

Got any teaser clips you can show?

My once in a lifetime, dream hunt would be for Cape Buff or Water Buff so I'm definitely going to get that one.

Love the cover, too.

Rod, I wasn't skeered - good climbing tree to the right. LOL

I bet Darryl will make a trailer when he is done balancing sound and making the master tape.

Way Cool, Denny!  If you and Daryl's previous work is any indication, this DVD is a must have!  Let us know when they come out.  We could use one in the PBS Lending Library as well...
Biggie, no redwoods in Australia?  It was fun hanging out with you even if it was only for a little bit in Pittsburgh!

Don Thomas took the jacket cover photo last year. It was cool to hunt with Don. I'd hunted with him before, but through his writings.

I never really felt in danger. Bill insisted on rifle back up. Not because we wanted it, but to ensure the protection of bowhunting dangerous game in Australia. It wouldn't have been good to have an injured hunter on Melville. I don't think Bill wanted an injured client either. The last thing in the world he wanted was to ever pull the trigger. I never even thought about anything but trying to make a good shot. Both trip were a lot of fun.

I'm in. Does it come with a extra pair of unsoiled skivvies? Just might need em.

I once saw a video when a injured water buffalo charged a hunter, straight at the camera. Guide waited out the charge untill he had a clean head shot. He had to lift his foot up as the buffalo slid/piled up under him. It was the most impressive/intense hunting footage I have ever witnessed. You fellas who chase these beasts with bows have my admiration! Can't wait to see it!
