Season – Fall Season typically runs September 15-December 25, with Winter Season running January 10-February 28. Most of our hunts take place in late October, November and January due to rutting periods and better sheep concentrations.

Hunt Area – Most drives to the hunt areas take 18-25 hrs, from Dushanbe by way of 4×4 vehicles. Typically you will be hunting at 10,000-14,000 ft up to 16,500 ft.

To ensure the leisure of customers there is a billiard room, a package of more than 500 television channels in English, Russian, French, German, and Turkish. The dining room and kitchen are located in the spacious house. In each of the camps can be taken simultaneously from 4 to 8 clients, including accompanying.The staff of each camp consists, in addition to the guides, of qualified cooks, waiters, doctors. Virtually all staff speak English and Russian.

Trophy Quality – Most of the Tajikistan Marco Polo Rams taken, range between 52”-58”. Rams of over 53” are rare, but some areas will produce them. Rams over 60” have been taken, but are exceptional and should not be expected on any hunt. Some areas have bigger rams than others and some areas have more animals than others. .

The Hunt – Generally, especially on the cold, late season hunts, we’ll often come back to the base camp at night, but spiking out is an option for the more prepared, adventurous and ambitious hunters looking for the biggest rams. Spot and stalk hunting is the preferred method of hunting as it allows us to judge the animals with spotting scopes, before making the final stalk. Hunters typically see many animals on Marco Polo hunts, including Ibex. On a typical day, hunters could see several hundred Ibex and Marco Polo, but in some areas, hunters might only see 500 animals in 1 day. Game densities and ram size can and will vary with location. We will put hunters in the areas to best meet their hunting goals and physical abilities. Due to the difficulty and longer distances (250-550 yards) of the rifle shots required, many hunters miss game. We highly recommend taking a professional shooting course so that you have the skills necessary to use a rifle and scope with custom reticle and/or turret and so you don’t miss.

Pamirian Ibex – Most Ibex shot during a Tajikistan Marco Polo hunt will be In the 38-45” range.
