Both magnificent animals, but the tahr - WOW! I have never heard of a tahr taken fair chase with a stickbow. A tip of the fedora!

I've never met the man, but IMO a living legend.  All business without all the fluff and multiple hero pics.  Can't wait to read the full story.  Congrats on some mighty fine "work".
