Hopefully these pics will post. If not ill get them on eventually. I was very fortunate on this hunt. My dad and I decided against trying to spot and stalk, and to just get up high and watch some areas to see if something comes by. By 1:pm I was thinking we needed to start working our way down so we don't get caught in the dark. And of course the winds were bad. By 1:30 the winds died down and I just spotted a white billie coming around the hill. I lost visual a few times as walked around the rocks and vegetation. I connected on him at 400 yards. I was very pleased on how clean of kill it was. He hardly took 3 steps before dropping. He measured at 38" which made me very happy. That was also by far the most difficult animal recovery I have ever done. He was way heavier than I was expecting! It was all such a great experience!!!!

Thank you all very much or the compliments! I feel a sense of relief now that I can quit obsessing about this hunt. ;) And thanks to all of you that gave me tips and pointers as well.
 
Beautiful Billy! Ibex are amazing critters and a coveted trophy. Congrats on a great hunt and great animal! Well done. Love that rock pile and will be visiting soon to chase lions and pigs as I didn't draw an ibex tag this year.

Congrats again!
