It's funny you ask about going outfitted. I make my living guiding hunters but have never had the opportunity to guide an Ibex hunter. I have spent some time down there though. I spend ALOT of time behind a tripod so I'm pretty confident in my abilities, but HONESTLY if I had the scratch, you bet I would!!!! just because I want the biggest billy on the mountain. Luckily I am friends with some of the best, most successful hunters in NM and AZ so I'm sure I'll have a wealth of knowledge(a couple of these guys are the only people I know who have taken every huntable species in NM and many with a bow, even Ibex, oryx and bighorn). But yeah theres a couple of outfitters I'd love to employ just due to their vast experince in the Floridas!!! I still can't believe it! Cant imagine how I'll feel next year when I draw my DESERT TAG!!!!!!!!
