Tim Herald1 Spot - AR Mid-Asian Ibex Group hunt- Oct 2017
Hi All,
I just had a guy cancel out on a group hunt I had put together for Mid-Asian Ibex. It has basically turned into an "AR Hunt" not necessarily by design. We have 6 total slots and 5 are full, 4 of us being AR members.
Below are the details. Let me know if interested. You can contact me direct at tim@trophyadventures.com or 859-608-9331
Mid-Asian Ibex
Kazakhstan
Oct 2-14 including travel
$9500
Bookings - Tim Herald Worldwide Trophy Adventures
Outfitter- Shikar Safaris
This will be 7 full days of hunting plus travel.
The appealing thing about this trip for me is that it is not at super high elevations. Mostly in the 5500-7000 range instead of 12-13,000 feet like Kyrg and Tajikistan. We are going early October, so temps should not be terribly cold yet. We will only be driving about 3-4 hours from airport to camp, so, no 10-16 hour brutal road trips as with many Asian hunts.
Billies should be in the 46-50" range. This will be a true Asian mountain hunting adventure without breaking your back, or your wallet.
Includes:
Meeting and drop off at the airport; All transportation to/from the hunting region; All transportation in the hunting area; Accommodation and food in the camp during the whole tour; Service of professional guide; All serving staff including one interpreter per group/camp; trophy care and packing for shipment.(hope to be able to bring home with us).
Excludes:
Airline ticket to/from Almaty; Hotel and meals in Almaty before and after the hunt (hotel $100-$300); Visa; Alcohol, items of a personal nature; Excess luggage payment charged by airlines; Sightseeing program; The cost of any extra hunting days; Non-hunter fee; The cost of additional trophies; Trophy shipment; Tips.
$400 Formalities package: Invitation; firearm export/import permit; International veterinary certificate

SIKA98KYou have obviously perfected cryogenic freezing.

Without it I don't think I would be booking a hunt that far in advance.

Tim HeraldSlot is sold, but we have had enough interest that we may just put a 2nd group together. We would travel together, split into 2 camps, and meet back after the hunt to come home. Let me know if interested...
