Mark Sullivan At Madrid hunting fair, we were visiting some clients and we met Santiago Escobedo, who had already booked an Ibex hunting with us for his friend Mark Sullivan, whom we met there in the same fair.  The next week, we joined in the hunting area and started looking for the Ibex around Beceite mountains, after examining several areas we found a group of 10 to 12 males where we saw a beautiful male, dark colors,

In the meantime all the ibexs lay down, we prepared all the strategy and Mark had gaze on the ibex group while we were preparing to approach.

We started slowly first around a slope and then among some almond lands and gradually we were closer to 175 meters. The male was still lying on the stones, Mark was sure from there he could shoot the Ibex, he leaned on a stick and put the shot in the perfect location, the male, mortally wounded, after several attempts undertaking get up and run without direction and a few meters later fell.

After the photographic session they were several snapshots for remembrance and Mark took the whole skin of the male with a perfect and enviable work, few people are so perfect.

After that, we spent the day having a few beers and listening to countless stories of Mark..

I want to thank both, Mark as Santiago, they visited our hunting area and wish them the best success in their lives.
