Trip Report: Trophy Ibex in Spain

April, 2019

Friends,

In late February, friends and I traveled to Spain to hunt ibex and to enjoy that historic and beautiful country.  We landed into Madrid just after sunrise and spent the remainder of the day and night touring the exquisite city, and eating its superb food.  After breakfast the next day, we traveled to the hunting areas.

We hunted Gredos and Beceite ibex. Both species live in raw wild mountain country with spectacular scenery.  Our guides and gamekeepers were great hunters and true professionals. Great numbers of ibex were found high on rocky slopes and bedded in the sun’s rays in low valleys.  I saw a good number of roe deer and a few herds red deer.  I was continually awed by the abandoned settlements, centuries’ old ruins, and terraced hillsides found throughout the Beceite ibex country.  I can report a fantastic hunt and experience!

I want to see more of Spain.  The next trip might be to hunt chamois in the Pyrenees Mountains or, to the south of Spain, for the Rhonda and Southeastern ibex, or maybe to join one of our groups on a driven red-legged partridge shoot.

For more Spain hunting information, call or email me.

Good Hunting,

Gordie

Gordie’s Book


“There are some things I knew about Gordie White before I read his book…and one important thing I did not know. I knew that he was not only an experienced hunter, but a passionate, with a genuine love for wild places and wild creatures. I knew that he’d been brought up as a hunter, and that this is, essentially, his life as well as his hobby, both his avocation and vocation. It’s my chronological misfortune to consider him young, but he’s filled his years with a tremendous amount of experience, from Canada to Africa and back again, with multiple stops in between. I knew these things because we’ve shared African campfires together…and I knew one thing more: Gordie White is one of the good guys, honest, self-deprecating, not given to the shameless self-promotion that, in this era of mass communication without accountability, turns inexperienced ‘wanna-be’s’ into self-proclaimed gurus. But there was one important thing that I did not know about Gordie White: The man can write! Although I’m sure there are more, there are two things that make a book like this worthy of reading. First, the writer must have a genuine story to tell. Second, he must be able to tell it. Gordie White passes both tests, and has given us a great story, worth telling and worth reading.”
