Ahunter55, never been on one but I have chequed it out as they have buffalo ranches around here, the cost is $600.00- $700.00 for a cow and $1500.00 for a bull. They frown on the archery part here, they say if you stick it and loose it, you buy it. I would just go with a rifle and be quaranteed meat. I haven't heard too many good things about the meat, [&o] I guess you kinda get spoiled with deer and elk. Buffalos are really nasty creatures.[X(] Bobby
