Help me understand your offer. I am in the market for this type of hunt but my understanding is that technically, these aren't Marco Polo but instead are Hume Argali? Is that the case or are these hunted on the other side of some river another booking agent had mentioned to me at the Sheep Show? I haven't looked at the GSCO guidebooks in a long time. Please PM me with availability for a chat. | |||

Sir PM sent. For general information. 1) USFW recognizes any sheep being imported in to the States from Kyrgyzstan as Marco Polo and do not differentiate between Marco Polo and Hume Argali. 2) SCI and GSCO classifies sheep from a certain region in Kyrgyzstan as a Hume Argali. If you wish to enter your trophy in their record book as a Hume Argali then the outfitter will organize your hunt in that area. 3) If you wish to enter your sheep as a Marco Polo then the outfitter will arrange your hunt in the area that SCI and GSCO recognizes The Naryn river forms the geographical boundary between different sheep according to these classifications. However the river is frozen for many months of the year and the sheep cross over from one side to the other. As far as the locals go they consider them all as the same sheep the Marco Polo! The hunt is the same and the price is the same. To my mind the real question should be what is the difference between a Marco polo hunt in Kyrgyzstan v/s Tajikistan? In Tajikistan the holy grail is 60" in Kyrgyzstan it is 55 inches In Tajikistan the hunt costs roughly $10,000+ more than in Kyrgyzstan In Tajikistan the hunt is at a much higher altitude than Kyrgyzstan where you see many hunters having problems with the altitude In Tajikistan the hunt is a lot of driving around and shooting at long ranges. In kyrgyzstan its a proper horseback hunt, where you will ride to spike camp and hunt from there everyday on horseback In Tajikistan you can hunt two species of Mid Asian Ibex, different areas. The Ibex in the MP area is referred to as the Pamir Ibex and have a white saddle similar to the ones in Kyrgyzstan. In Kyrgyzstan you will have a better chance at a bigger Ibex.

Hi Arjun, Is there full time English interpreter on the hunt or how is the language barrier handled? Are you directly involved in outfitting these hunts or how is does that work? Just curious as I've been very interested in a Marco Polo hunt but have had some reservations. Thanks for any info. Chris | |||

Cannot agree more with the difference between Hume and Marco Polo. Had the same experience in Kyrgyzstan. The VIP service is highly recommended Never been to Tajikistan but the altitude is, for what I've seen and heard, is a complete challenge unless you spend no less than 4 days to acclimatize, which I consider a must. In Kyrgyzstan my hunt for both animals was conducted between 3500 and 4500 meters...not easy...horses are a must. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ColdBore 1.0 - the ballistics/reloading software solution http://www.patagoniaballistics.com | |||
