210-264-2461i think in order for that to work, I’d need your phone number.
I read your post and it prompted me to create an account with Rockslide but I can't PM for 7 days etc etc. I am looking for a good Ibex outfitter, can you PM the information for Saku and Bektur, unless you have a better suggestion. Much appreciatedIf anyone wants info for the local outfitters so they can book directly through them, just let me know. I have no doubt that Saku and Bektur will take great care of you from beginning to end.
Actually I forgot I created an account in 2020, I just never use it so apparently I still can't PM :/I read your post and it prompted me to create an account with Rockslide but I can't PM for 7 days etc etc. I am looking for a good Ibex outfitter, can you PM the information for Saku and Bektur, unless you have a better suggestion.

I can appreciate that. I look forward to any update and thank you for the referral. My understanding from a couple sources and the internet is that the season in Kyrgyzstan (for Ibex anyway) is currently closed for 2023 and might stay closed for 3 years. Supposedly we should know for use in another month or so.I’d like to wait on giving Saku and Bektur my full approval. None of the guys in my group have gotten their trophies back yet. I have sent both guys multiple messages. They always respond promptly and Bektur says the CITES permits have been applied for and we are just waiting for them. I hope that this is true but it’s hard to believe anything about this hunt since everything went so poorly.
I know that some years ago Mirbala Manafov, who I hunted Dagestan tur with in Azerbaijan, was booking some ibex hunts through a close friend of his in Kyrgyzstan. Whether he still does or not, I have no idea but he was a stand up guy and did an excellent job for us in Azerbaijan. His contact info:

That doesn't make sense. Kyrgyz export CITES for both sheep and ibex can be obtained in a single business day in Bishkek.They always respond promptly and Bektur says the CITES permits have been applied for and we are just waiting for them.
Agree that it doesn’t make sense which is why I’m not endorsing anyone over there until I get my trophy.That doesn't make sense. Kyrgyz export CITES for both sheep and ibex can be obtained in a single business day in Bishkek.
Must be serious what he did to get banned! People said he was shady , for it to get to this level is pretty bad.
Great video. Thanks for sharing!Weatherby’s video of the hunt. Nice work Luke!
