I'm a rookie but I like number 3..I like a low drop and tight curl..actually reminds me of a girl I dated.
 
Erase the last three inches off each side of number two and round the horns off at the ends !!

That'd be the one for me.
 
Keep the votes coming…

for this little black duck.............
 
still # 2

will not let me vote again
 
If I get to come back for a 3rd trip in a few years for Buff, I will mostly be desiring very big, scarred up, gnarly bosses. The rest is ok either way.
I chose #3 though.
 
number 2 ...
please guys, keep voting we all need a new cap and tee shirt for the coming hunting season.....

Can we go with a number 4?

I like the boss of number 1. The drop and hooks of number 2. Will have to go with number 2. Wouldn't pass on any of them if given the opportunity.

#1 for me but I would take any of them hanging on the wall at my home:)

That's pretty funny from my life's experience point of view as well, because my ex wife looks like an elephant and my forever wife looks like an impala.
 
Oh yeah, I forgot to vote.

Numero Dos for me but with a side bar.

Old Velo's favorite buffalo horn configuration is heavy bosses/battle chipped and worn, one side more or less with a complete horn and the other broken off about half way through the curl.

If that could have been option #4 here, it would have gotten my vote for sure, instead of #2.

Nonetheless, Great Question........Mongo like.

Best Regards,
Velo Dog.
 
Aesthetically #1
Functionally #3

#1 looks like a younger bull with incredible genetics, but not worn and hard fought.
#3 looks like a fighter who can gore as hard as he can stare, with exposed tips for the job.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
