You mention shot placement....is the behind the ear preferred?

It's good so you don't damage the meat and kills them instantly they drop like a sack of potatoes

That's interesting, I suppose it's a much larger target area than the same spot on a deer or elk. Also, shooting at a relaxed animal I woiuld guess at relatively close distance?
I hunt, therefore I am.... I fish, therefore I lie.

That's interesting that a lot of people shoot deer in the head also at a couple hundred yards and they are relaxed also at least the buffalo sense something is going on so they bunch up so it's hard to get a shooting lane

That is a problem with herding animals. I've heard that is the most difficult aspect of shooting the larger herding animals like Bison, Muskox, etc...

It's a defense mechanism that buffalo or bison to protect from predators like wolves

Here is a winter picture of the buffalo in Eastern Oregon which the coats are nice and thick and not have to worry about Slipping hair and the buffalo are at the heaviest this is perfect for filling the freezer especially unsuccessful during the general hunting season

They have a butcher shop local but if you don’t live near by then I would suggest taking it to a butcher nearby your home because they don’t ship the meat so you would have to drive all the way back to pick up the meat. I was told by a butcher that they could ship the meat within Oregon so if you live in Oregon let me know

The average hanging weight varies from 500-600 lbs most of my clients have shot buffalo that are between 550-600 that’s realistic

There are 2 days left of deer season for bow so contact me if you want to harvest your buffalo to fill the freezer for a whole year. You can also have a nice buffalo skull and a buffalo hide for a rug can’t beat that with some of the best meat you will ever eat
