458WinGreg, it was great to finally read the end of your story. it brought back a lot of fantastic memories. I thought I took a lot of photos but you have some great ones as well.
Thanks for sharing the memories. That is, after all, what hunting and life is about.
Anyone who claims the 30-06 is ineffective has either not tried one, or is unwittingly commenting on their own marksmanship

Jack D BoldGreg,
Awesome hunt, great report. Nice to hear both the sugar and the salt.
The Bezoar is the most stunning trophy of the ibex. One of these days...

Greg BrownleeThought I'd post photos of the finished mount! Here's the final mount, photos aren't great because I took it on a cell phone but here's the best photo I got. It looks amazing in real life!

Greg BrownleeThanks guys, I thought it turned out nicely! Gotta shamelessly plug Dean Schulte at High Uintahs Taxidermy. He did a heck of a job on the mount.

tendramsReally great looking mount! I am also a fan of High Uintah's taxidermy and particularly their dual fighting leopard mount! Now I just need to shoot a couple cats!

That mount was incredible! I know you didn't get over for the show in 2011 but he had them there and they were phenomenal. Westfalen's got a leopard on quota this year

Anders - Thanks, I'm very pleased with the final result!

I was wondering whose hand that was reaching in my pocket!

Seriously, my wife would kill me as we are house building at the moment and the cash for leopard would take care of our windows and wiring.

I have little doubt though that a guy baiting on Westfalen has a really good shot at his cat. We saw tracks regularly.

FishN4EyesAwesome mount.
Headed to Turkey in 2015 and hope to come back with one like yours.
Great animals!
I might PM you on some questions regarding Turkey if that's all right.
Going to take the wife and spend an extra week or so touring.
