Bowhunting Black Death - Part 1 | The EDGE | S10 E6

On his first-ever trip to Africa, Steve Ecklund heads to Limpopo, South Africa with Bailey Safaris — and things escalate fast. On the very first evening sit, a herd of Cape Buffalo approaches the water hole. At 25 yards, Steve releases an arrow at one of Africa’s most dangerous game animals. What follows is an intense tracking job through thick brush at first light — carrying backup rifles in case the wounded buffalo charges. The next days bring target-rich bowhunting action: giant warthogs, impala string-jumping drama, and recovery work that proves why patience and shot placement matter. From Cape Buffalo to warthog to impala, this is Africa bowhunting at its finest. 📍 Location: Limpopo Province, South Africa 🦬 Species: Cape Buffalo, Warthog, Impala 🏹 Weapon: Bowhunting Dangerous Game 🔥 Outfitter: Bailey Safaris Stream New Episodes on Wild TV+, download the app for FREE: https://get.wildtvplus.ca?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=social&utm_content=the+edge 0:00 – First Trip to Africa 0:58 – Sponsors & Quiet eBike 1:53 – Arrival in South Africa (Bailey Safaris) 4:47 – First Evening Sit 5:31 – Cape Buffalo at the Water 6:53 – 25 Yard Shot on Buffalo 7:42 – Tracking Dangerous Game 8:50 – Buffalo in Thick Brush 9:45 – Death Bellow 10:48 – Giant Cape Buffalo Recovery 12:00 – Hunter’s Toast Tradition 13:24 – Day Two Begins 14:33 – Hundreds of Warthogs 15:45 – Big Warthog Down 17:00 – Impala Opportunity 17:43 – String Jump Moment 18:52 – Reviewing the Shot 19:29 – Morning Recovery 20:31 – Impala Found 21:21 – Why South Africa is a Bowhunter’s Dream #TheEDGE #CapeBuffalo #AfricaHunt #BowhuntingAfrica #DangerousGame #SouthAfricaHunting #WarthogHunt #Impala #Bowhunting #WildTV
