One more time I came to hunt in Iran. The hunt took place in South Khorasan province, near the Birdjand city, not far from Afghanistan border. There are 80000 hectares of governmental lands with about 2000 listed sheeps in the area. Indeed, there are aa lot of animals. We have seen groups of sheeps almost in each valley.      At the first day, I took 7-year-old male with amazing thoracal  suspension. Thank to Israfil, Hasan and all the professional squad accompaining me at that trip. And to the new meetings on the hunt on the Armenian Mouflon. A short video report is available here. 

The first trip to get the Esfahan Mouflon in the February 2018, was unsuccessful.  Each of five days I walked not less than 15-20km but without any result. We couldn’t find any trophy size male. The beginning of the second hunt wasn’t good too. It started at 5 am each day and lasted till 6pm but we didn’t see any trophy.  At 8am the sun heated air to 27-30C degrees and animals activity reduced.  We walked 58km during four days.  At the last day I noticed the good size male and we tried to get it. The hard landscape and steep slopes didn’t give any opportunity but to  sneap it up as much closer. At last I approached it 300m, the shot was done from 100m. I got 8 years old Esfahan Mouflon

Hi to everyone. We struggle for the brilliant level SCI record book, Chamois. We have already 6 Chamois, but it is better to make sure and make 8 in advance. The problem was with the Caucasian Chamois, very large animal and so small horns??? Impossible to include in to the SCI record book. Everyone, who was on the hunt in Bolgaria or in Macedonia on the Kri-kri of Balkan Chamois…know Rada. Everything organized very well., as always. It was one of the fastest hunts for me! The place of hunt – Rhodop mountains, Devin city. I flew from Barcelona 17.09.2018 at 16:30. At 22:00 I was in Sofia. The road to the hotel took three hours, at 2 o’clock at night we were already sleeping. The SPA hotel “Ismena” is a good. It is possible to see on Gigle maps. At 7 o’clock in the morning left by Russian “Niva” to the place of Hunt b the mountain ground road. At 8:00 we left the car and how the Garmin showed, we made 700 meters. At 8:30 we have been doing the photos of the trophy already. A good Chamois, on my opinion, the Chamois for more than 100 points. I was shooting not far, about 150-200 meters. A group comprising about 7 animals. The weather was very good, sunny. In the hotel could have a rest and have a lunch. At 13:30 we left to Sofia and at 16:00 the person, who accompanied me, left back to Barcelona. Everything has been done in 24 hours with the flight from Barcelona and back. Though the hunt took about 30 minutes with photos, we moved on foot 700 meters. I had to have a flight not in time due to the rifle, because not all the companies take the weapons and the ammunition. Not always the hunt is accompanied by the search and adventures, but this kind of hunt takes it’s place as well. A little bit of luck?

This hunt was not only the hunt but adventure when we flew by helicopter admiring the picturesque views from air. This time I understood that people who hunt for Kamchatka Snow Sheep did it not only because of its meat.
