Question 9

thinking about renting shotguns, what's the difference in recoil or performance between a 20 gauge and 12 gauge for dove hunting

Accepted Answer

That's a great question, and the choice between a 12 gauge and a 20 gauge can significantly impact your comfort and performance during a high-volume dove hunt!

Generally, a **12 gauge** offers more power, a larger shot payload, and can provide denser patterns at longer ranges. This means it can be very effective, but it also typically comes with noticeably more recoil, which can lead to fatigue over several days of high-volume shooting, especially given the sheer volume of doves you'll encounter in Argentina.

A **20 gauge**, on the other hand, is lighter, produces less recoil, and is often preferred by hunters who are sensitive to recoil, new to shooting, or simply want a more comfortable experience. For the vast majority of dove hunting scenarios, a 20 gauge is perfectly adequate and highly effective, allowing you to shoot more comfortably for longer periods without sacrificing much performance. Many experienced dove hunters actually prefer the 20 gauge for its lighter weight and quicker handling, making it easier to swing on fast-moving birds.

At AWS Lodge, we understand these preferences, and we ensure you have access to excellent firearms suitable for high-volume shooting. Unless you are booking a 1-day trip, our multi-day packages are completely all-inclusive. This covers luxury lodging, gourmet meals, open bar, and professional guides. We handle all the logistics for you, including arranging gun rentals and hunting licenses, which are added to your final itinerary so you don't have to worry about the details. Our team will help you select the ideal shotgun for your comfort and shooting style upon arrival.

Question 10

renting 20-gauge vs 12-gauge shotguns for the may dove trip, what's the reco for shell volume and recoil fatigue over a few days of high volume shooting

Accepted Answer

That's a great question, and it's something many hunters consider for high-volume dove shooting!

For a multi-day high-volume dove trip, recoil fatigue is a significant factor.
*   **20-gauge shotguns** are generally highly recommended for sustained shooting. They offer significantly less recoil than a 12-gauge, which means you can shoot thousands of rounds over several days with much less discomfort and fatigue. This allows for more consistent shooting performance throughout your trip. While shell volume might be slightly less per box, the overall comfort greatly outweighs this for most hunters.
*   **12-gauge shotguns** offer a bit more payload and a wider variety of loads, but the recoil can become very noticeable and tiring after just a few hours of high-volume shooting, let alone multiple days. Unless you are very accustomed to shooting a 12-gauge extensively and are confident in managing the recoil, a 20-gauge often leads to a more enjoyable and productive experience at AWS Lodge.

At AWS Lodge, we specialize in providing an all-inclusive luxury experience. This means that while you're asking about specific gear like gun rentals, these are seamlessly handled as part of your multi-day package. We arrange high-quality firearm rentals for you, ensuring you have the right equipment for an unforgettable trip, whether you prefer a 20-gauge for comfort or a 12-gauge.

Regarding shell prices, they vary depending on market conditions, so we recommend confirming the exact price directly with our team closer to your trip. Gun rental fees and hunting licenses are standard fees managed seamlessly by our team upon booking.
