Photo 6: An exceptional, approximately 11Yrs old solid bossed buffalo bullHorn rubbing is an important part of dominant, breeding bull behavior. This wears the horn tips down.While not so important with regards to the Rowland Ward system of measurement, this practice, togetherwith the fact that the horn tips drop as the bull matures, has a significant influence on a bull’s SCImeasurement. In a nutshell, a bull, regardless of his initial horn size, will score less and ever less on the SCIsystem of measurement as he matures and progressed from a pre-breeding through to a breeding and thento a post-breeding bull. As I see it, this is the primary flaw with this measuring system.The current top ranking SCI bull, and the current no’s 5, 10 and 17 were all pre-breeding, 6 to 7 year oldbulls at the time they were collected.Photo 7: Current Number 1 SCI – The bull is soft bossed. A number of independent buffaloauthorities have aged this bull to be 7 years old. The chances that he got to breed before being shotare remote126
Photo 8: Current SCI Number 5 is of a similar agePhoto 9: Current SCI Number 10 is also a really young, pre-breeding soft-bossed bullPhoto 10: This exceptional 6 year old bull was the SCI no. 1. It now ranks no. 17. What a pity it nevergot to breed as it truly was a magnificent specimen.One does not have to be Einstein to realize the long term effect of shooting genetically superiorspecimens before they have a chance to pass on their genes, and already this is be<strong>com</strong>ing evident.127
