The hunt was organized in the hunting ground belong to the Markhor company. The way from Dushanbe to the place, located on the NorthEast of Tajikistan took us seven hours. We spent the night in Dzhirgatal and moved to the mountains in early morning. We were going to the place where the locals noticed the group of goats before our arrival. The animals were detected in a half of an hour. There was a male, elder than 7 years old. I approached it 500m. It fell down after a shot. Unfortunately it slipped by snow and fell down into the deep gorge at the bottom of which the river flowed. After a short discussion we called a climber to help us to get the trophy. The outfitter had several more licenses and we continued to hunt. We saw several more herds of goat 30-60 animals in each. Next day we could come to the small group and I got 9 years old male. The shooting distance was 575m. the used rifle Accuracy AXMC 338 Lapua Mag. We went back to Dushanbe at the same day. Thank you very much to Tuichi Ikromov for the great hunt. The trip was organized on the high level in a very good place, all team was professional. My personal thanks to Evgeny Kharitonov and Stalker group company. PS The climber could took off the goat which felt into gorge, I got first, only when I was in Dushanbe.

I hunted in Tajikistan from 7th to 13th February. The trip was organized by the Murgab company. We started our expedition from hunting for Bukhara urial in the Kulaybsky district. The density of animals’ population is high and hunting wasn’t hard. I shot from 200m at the angle 40 degrees down. On February 9 we moved to Pamir in Murgab. The Base camp was located on the height 4200 masl. At the first day I got the trophy of 10 years old ram of Marco Polo, 58,5 inches. The shooting distance was 465 m. All my guides were very professional and worked well.

I hunted in Pakistan from 24th of January to February, 1st. We started from hunting for a Blue sheep near the town Sost. It took us three hours to fly by chopper  from Islamabad to Sost and then we drove to mountains. It was about 4 pm when we reached the place where stayed for a night. Next morning we left the camp and moved to another one looking for the animals while driving. The temperature at night dropped to -250C. It was cold in the cabin where we slept and I couldn’t relax. We went for hunting at 4.30 am and it was really cold yet. On the sunrise we saw the snow leopard’s tracks, not less then three of them. The guides said that it was a bad sign because sheep preferred to go away from such neighbors. At the sunset we managed to detect the group of sheep at the end of the gorge.  We had less than three daylight hours to approach them but we did it. I shot from 460m distance and up. My trophy became 11 years old male. It was dark when we came back to the camp. That day we walked more than 13 hours on the heights more than 4300masl. It was really tough. We spent three days in Sost and then moved to Chitral for hunting for a markhor. It took us just one day to get the trophy though we spent about 12 hours to look for a good one. We walked around the mountain massive several times hoping to find the animals. But all males, we met there were small, but the guides went on to assure us that there was a good one. We found it about 4 pm. One hour we climbed and it was a twilights when I could fire. The shooting distance was 539m at angle 41 degrees. The guides didn’t allow we to go to the trophy because were not sure that I could descend in the darkness. We carried it when it was night already but were happy in any case. Hunting there isn’t difficult because the density of  animal’s population is high but almost all of them are young.
