Our Gals picked ... Cliff Tulpa !
Cliff is a international adventurer and explorer. And as host of the television series, " Cliff's Wild Outdoor Adventures". Cliff Tulpa travels throughout the world on expeditions in pursuit of all the big game species. He hunts eight to ten months a year and has traveled to every continent in his quest. Thus far, he had taken over 200 species of big game animals. Cliff enjoys hunting with several methods including rifle, shotgun, muzzle loader, handgun and archery equipment. To his credit are several "WORLD RECORD" trophies of many species taken with muzzle loader and shotgun. Now, ... according to Cliff, completing the North American Grand Slam of Wild Sheep was one of his hunting career highlights. WOW, ... I'd say so. No wonder why the gals here picked Mr. Tulpa !!! Cliff sent in lots of great photos so please enjoy.

Then, ... top right is the Mid-Asian Ibex from the Pamir Mountains in Tadjikistan. And the lower large photo is Cliff and Marina with his Siberian Ibex taken in the Altai Mountains, Mongolia.
