![[Linked Image]](https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/pics/userpics/2021/12/full-9089-328926-img_2879.jpg) I darted him this morning and trimmed his hoofs. Then measured his RH horn. How long do you think it is?

How about 28 inches, may be off, never measured one before? That’s an impressive ibex, always cool seeing your pics!

Was gonna guess 32, but nevermind; beautiful animals! I thought the same thing, but was late to the party as don k had already posted the actual length. Very nice looking animal.
