I am considering booking a water buffalo hunt with Matt Kelman, Australia Wide Safaris. Wondering if anybody here has ever been with him? He hasn't taken very many bow hunters, but does a lot of big bore, double rifle hunts with the clients shooting at 20 - 30 yards. The references and reviews on the operation that I have are all very good. Just looking to see if there is anything that I am missing?

Thanks,

Gene

I have bow hunted buffalo with Matt. I can recommend him heartily. I will PM you with a phone number.

Matt has some big buff. Those are actually cow horns in front. Really big cow horns

And please don't shoot Pig. Pig was Matt's hand raised pet. He caught him when it was a wild little piglet. Followed us around like it was a dog.

they sure do have some great reptiles down under. Would love to do some herping down there as well as bow hunt.

Don't have to go far to get a sighting of a snake. Just go for a walk in the wilds of Australia!!
