Q: for december trip what's the actual diff between mixed bag and dove only like what species we talkin and is it a big price jump

AWS EXPERT REPLY
That's an excellent question, especially for a December trip!

The core difference between our High-Volume Dove and Mixed Bag programs lies in the species you'll be targeting:

High-Volume Dove Program: This program is entirely dedicated to the incredible dove shooting experience Argentina is famous for. You'll enjoy unlimited doves, often described as the highest volume dove shooting in the world, with professional guides ensuring a fantastic experience.
Mixed Bag Program: This takes the high-volume dove shooting and adds the thrill of hunting other species. For a Mixed Bag trip, we typically add Duck and/or Perdiz hunting to your itinerary. This allows for a more varied hunting experience, combining the fast-paced action of doves with the challenge of waterfowl or upland birds.

Regarding the "big price jump," our multi-day packages are designed to be completely all-inclusive, covering luxury lodging, gourmet meals, an open bar, and professional guides. When adding duck and/or perdiz to your itinerary, there is an additional fee of quoted upon request by our team for the duck/perdiz add-on. This ensures you get to experience the diverse hunting opportunities Argentina has to offer, all seamlessly arranged by our team.

"Honestly the best wingshooting trip of my life. The high-volume dove shooting is exactly as advertised - non-stop action. The lodge is luxurious and the staff makes you feel like family."

"I was skeptical about the 'no internal flights' claim, but it's true. Landed in BA and was hunting by the afternoon. The mixed bag program allowed me to hunt ducks and perdiz in the same trip. Top notch."

"The food alone is worth the trip. The asados in the field were incredible. If you are looking for a luxury lodge near Buenos Aires, this is the one. Can't wait to return next season."
