It is possible to expect the size from one meters to 1meter 40cm. But the hunt not so hard as caucasian hunting trips.
It is important to be able shot on a distance from 250 metres and to keep in a saddle.

Profy,
are you offering this deal for only the dates you are advertising? I am seriously looking into these Kyrg hunts, but cannot make the dates you have listed in 2010.. I could in latter 2010 or even into 2011..

Thanks

When Profy says this, this is obviously true. What you have to realize, is that the "air starts to get thin" at about 1.20m, and 1.30m is exceptionally good - just the odd one coming out at that length. 1.40 is record territory (or close).

In Anglosaxon hunting literature, the "dream measurement" for an ibex is always 50": 1.27cm. For a European, 1.20 or 1.30m would be the dream - depending on how picky you are...

A good, but not exceptional trophy, i.e a trophy one could realisticly expect to hold out for, would probably be 1.10 and over. If you go, make sure you have two licences, whack the first 1.10m trophy you see, and start looking for that 1.3-1.4 m dream ibex...

1.0m is a bit on the shorter side for Mid Asian Ibex, although it would be trophy class for an Alpine Ibex, say.

What one should not forget. Even in a good area, 100% guaranteed ibex hunting is a rare thing. So it is also possible to go home empty handed. A friend of mine just did from Kirgizstan this fall. He had set his heart on an ibex of 1.20 and found nothing close. In that case, a 1.0 m trophy all of a sudden starts looking pretty good...

- mike

Profy will tell us the real score, but looking at this trophy, I would guess around 1.10 - perhaps 1.15m... In my mind, he lacks the extra curve that would take him to 1.20, and his curl is not open enough to do without the extra curve at the tip.



(Now Trophy will embarrass me, by telling us all he is 1.30m )

I know it is hard to judge trophies by looking at pictures - in particular of mounts, but here another couple of ibex. The first is from Kirgizstan (many years ago). This one gets his length from extra curve at the tip of the horn. If you look at his horns from the side, they will seem almost circular:



The next one is from the Russian side of the Altai - notice the colour scheme is different to that of the KIrgiz ibex. This one has the much straighter horns, they don't curve nearly as much as the previous one did - but the length is there, nevertheless. Notice the spread of this one...

If I say to you that you will see the ibex - you will see it. If you can good shot - you get a trophy.

Yes, you are right.

Why you have decided, what I will deceive?

In Altai it is difficult to take a Ibex trophy more than 1 m. In Kirghizia a trophy with one meters is not a very good trophy.

No no, I was just trying to be careful not to stick my neck out too far - I could have been wrong after all...

Are you saying that most of the hunting will be off horseback? Would this be an enjoyable hunt for someone in reasonable shape? Would there be a second tag (for a second ibex) available if desired, if so, at what cost?
Thanks

Access to the general hunting areas, and in particular the spike camps will be on horseback. After that, it is shanks mare. The hunting itself is mostly (99%?) on foot.

- mike

mike,
are you with extrem-tours? Profyhunter originally offered the package, just trying to get the concerned parties straight?

How cold would it be at hunting elevation? Would you expect a lot of snow?

In winter -10-20°C. In Kegeti is not such cold temperature as in Pamir or Tjan-Shan. There will be more as -30°.
This hunting area belongs to an administrative office of the president of Kirghizia.
The territory of hunting area occupies 39000 hectares .In this area the hunting guide counted obove 650 ibex with female and male.
We have two hunting base camp in Kegeti.

Base hunting camps in Kegeti

Wow, that is a good deal more luxurios than the base camp I "enjoyed" - granted, this was quite a while ago.

- mike

Prophy,

Do you offer these hunts during other times of the year? If so, at what prices?

I would guess temps in march would be warmer than january or febuary. How about the fog and precip?(rain, snow)

I have not hunted Ibex but really want to. I have hunted in the Rocky mountain area of the US in winter, hunting from horseback at 0f and below can be brutal even when wearing all the clothes you own.

According to your post one should bring a two person tent. How many nights can one expect to sleep in the tent?

Thanks,
Adrian

I too would like to know how many days in the tent one would expect to spend.Any stove requirements for heating water/cooking required. What latitude is the hunting area in? Here in Alaska we are at 64deg. North Latitude. How many daylight hours for hunting do you expect to have. Obviously depends on latitude.
Does the hunting take place from the lodge buildings you show each day....on horse back from there????
How much snow does the area experience in a normal winter.
Thank you for your forthcomiing response.

Hi Adrian!
Hi Guys!
In the winter temperature in Kegety-10°-15°С.
You should not bring with yourselves tents.
In mountains there is a small dugout where it is possible to spend the night if do not wish to go down to base camp.
There are 3 hours on horse back from the lodge
to hunting place.
Bishkek is on same North Latitude as well as New York.Accordingly and light day precisely same. There is a lot of snow in this region.

Magnificent country...breathtaking!

Profy,
Is a taster trip, a hunt for non-exportable non trophy ibex? 1000 USD for like an exploratory trip? Explain a little about this taster idea.


Could you upgrade if you want to take a big one?

quote:

1000 USD for like an exploratory trip?

It is simple.
You come to Bishkek and go to hunting with local hunters for 3-4 days, look ibex, if you like, you can shoot small ibex or female, but to take out of Kirghizia it is impossible.
Then you can post at this forum the photos and a hunting story

Igor

PM sent your way.
Thank you

The scenery is absolutely stunning.
