Hi I have been shooting a Fedora 560 lately and a Hoyt Tiburon
The bow shop called and my Buffalo came in . Went and picked it up and set it up. Very slick the way it goes together and really liked that I could drop the weight to get used to it.
Shooting a 600 grain arrow very quiet but what would you expect with that weight arrow and Limb Savers
Very smooth and fairly quick to the eye have not chronagraphed yet.. not as quick as the little 560 but hits where your looking. All and all very impressed
I was looking for a bow to do some rough and tumble deer drives and I have found it I believe . That is what I bought the Tiburon for and althought I liked it I prefer the adjustability of the Buffalo and it seems to shoot better for me.
I hear alot of people complaining that there is no plunger button but i think Hoyt and Fred where going after the shoot off the self instinctive shooter here and for that they have succeded in my opinion

Hey Lin I should have figured you for a stick bow shooter :) .. Very cool See ya at Blade
1st impression - the first three arrows I shot out of a Buffalo were at 20 yards. All three were right on the mark. Possibly a 3" group. That is good for me.
Hey Joe,
What is the quiver in your pic?
good info!!!
Got any unstrung profile pics? Would like to see it unstrung and at full draw.
I like the looks of it...just wish it was true ILF or had a tec bar. Love those tec bars.
Nice bow,seen them in the 3rivers catalog.
A bit off topic,but if that is you in the pic with the real buffalo and Sharps rifle...Paint me plain ol' jealous... :notworthy:
They are a nice bow I've shot several of them and kind of considered buying one myself
I like mine alot Still waiting on my quiver. These bows are a lot of fun to shoot!

Yes it i I am waiting for the taxidermy man to call me and tell me its finished
Last year I went Buffalo hunting with Famous Bowie Knife maker Bill Bagwell and I shot this Bull with one of Bill's many Sharps and ended up buying the rifle from Bill
At the time Bill wa working on a Black powder load for I believe Black Dog

Good info thanks for sharing
Is anyone shooting these buffs with a longer draw, such as 30-31", if so hows the feel?
i like the look of this bow
whats the peak draw weight you can get with the Buff ?
Can someone please post a close up of the shelf and the grip please.
I shot one for about an hour the other day. I have a draw of a little over 30". It felt purdy smooth from start to finish. Overall I was impressed with it. It had a nice grip and felt good in the hand. The only problem I seen, it had a purdy narrow shelf. Not much room to play. Nice bow anyway! JMHO! Jason
