Q: hey for august mixed bag vs dove only what's the actual hunting difference day to day is it still mostly doves or is there a good balance with other birds
AWS EXPERT REPLY
Hello! That's an excellent question, and it highlights one of the unique aspects of hunting with AWS Lodge.
For August, choosing between a Mixed Bag program and a High-Volume Dove only program definitely changes your day-to-day hunting experience.
With our High-Volume Dove program, as the name suggests, you'll be focused exclusively on doves, experiencing the incredible high-volume shoots Argentina is famous for. You'll have two dedicated dove sessions per day (morning and afternoon), with a gourmet lunch back at the lodge.
Our Mixed Bag program, however, offers a fantastic balance of different birds during August. While you'll still experience high-volume dove hunting, it's designed to incorporate other species. A typical mixed bag day in August might look like this:
• Morning: You could start with a duck hunt in our prime private lagoons, or perhaps a perdiz (partridge) hunt over pointing dogs.
• Afternoon: You'd then transition to a high-volume dove shoot, ensuring you still get that thrilling, non-stop action.
So, to answer your question directly, with the Mixed Bag program in August, it's absolutely not "still mostly doves" in the sense of two dove hunts per day. There's a very good balance that allows you to experience the diversity of Argentine wingshooting. You get to enjoy the challenge of different species, and then cap it off with the unparalleled dove action.
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.
To help me tailor the best information for you and send you a custom proposal detailing these programs, could you please share your email address? Also, what time of year are you considering for your trip, and how many hunters would be in your group?
