Mine is the Mid-Asian Ibex. Those big rugged sweeping horns just do it for me. Hopefully one day I will make it happen. What's your animal?

Brown bear with a bow for me... or rifle. I can't imagine anything more exciting than have one of those animals within bow range.

I guess the mid-Asian ibex and morco polo are often paired together but the ibex is much cheaper at least this is what I seem to find researching it. So same country similar hunt but significantly cheaper hunt, lucky me I guess

If I were to dream BIG it would be a Marco Polo hunt. Another dream hunt that will come true some day is a high mountain, horseback elk hunt.

Well, I guess I would love to take all the sheep species. But being I have to work for a living and will never be rich, I'll settle for what I hunt every year.
There ain't NOTHIN better that a high country Idaho muley. I dream about it all year.

Dall Sheep. But, I work for a living, so, 15+grand for a hunt isn't going to happen. Maybe some day I'll draw a sheep tag here in Washington, but the odds are probably not. Luckily I'm realistic, and I'm happy just being able to hunt deer, elk, and bear every year.

Tahr, Chamoise and Red Deer in New Zealand are second place.

Bighorn, or Stone Sheep.
The Stone will never happen , because the Canadians do not like us handgun hunters!!

15g for a sheep hunt would be super cheap I haven't seen them for under 30,000. New Zealand is my #2 every now and again I threaten that I'm going move there. Here in Washington I'm dreaming of a 170+ mule deer and am also putting in for the never in a lifetime sheep and goat hunts as well.

I would love to hear about how this ibex hunt turns out and how the details ie customs and all the little costs add up to. Congrats on getting out on your dream hunt!
