Montero, I want to make sure I understand this.

1) daily fee of 450 euros per hunter



2) Trophy fees are 4,000 euros for Gredos or Beceite Ibex



3) That price is all inclusive from and to the pick-up airport, except for the trophy fees, alcoholic drinks, and the preparation and shipping of the trophies/capes.

I assume this is except the medal fee?



4) In the case of Ibex the medal fees are 1,250 euros for the Bronze Medal, 2,500 euros for the Silver Medal, and 4,000 euros for the Gold Medal up to 230 CIC points

Quote:

---

a medal fee is a prize and a form of recognition for the hardship and self sacrifice that a large trophy demands.

A prize? Hardship and sacrifice for who?



So if I understand this right the following example would apply.

5 days at 450 euro = 2250 euro

1 ibex trophy fee = 4000 euro

1 gold medal fee = 4000 euro

total 10250 euro not including air transportation, accomodations before and after the hunt, alcoholic drinks, prep and ship of trophy to taxidermist in home country. I am going to add an additional 2000 euros for these. Now we are at 12250 euros.

Current exchange rate 1.328 dollars/euro

That brings it to $16268.00 usd without extras.



I would love to hunt ibex I think they are unique and challenging animals. However, for that much I can do a very nice hunt several places including Tanzania and shoot 2 buff and some other stuff as well. I guess I will have to stay in Africa for now. I just cant justify that much for one ibex. I am not tearing you down, only pointing out the way I feel about it. If the pricing was more reasonable even with the lousy exchange rate I would be there in a minute.
