Q: so for a mixed bag hunt in november compared to a dove-only trip, what's the actual difference in the hunting experience like how much duck hunting do we get versus doves

AWS EXPERT REPLY
That's an excellent question! Please note that AWS Lodge does not offer the Mixed Bag program for November trips — it runs only during the confirmed season, generally mid-May to mid-August. For a November trip, we exclusively offer our High-Volume Dove program. For reference, when the Mixed Bag program is booked in season, you get the best of both worlds: while high-volume dove shooting remains a cornerstone of the experience, we integrate dedicated hunts for other species, primarily ducks and perdiz (a quail-like bird).

Duck Hunting: This typically involves early morning hunts from blinds over decoys in our 32 prime private lagoons, which are 5-45 minutes from the lodge. We provide a dedicated bird boy per guest, ensuring a highly personalized experience. Duck hunting is known for its intense action and challenging shots.
Perdiz Hunting: This is a classic walked-up hunt with pointing dogs, offering a different pace and requiring precision.
Dove Hunting: You still enjoy incredible high-volume dove shooting, often in the afternoons, or as a complement to your duck and perdiz sessions.

The Mixed Bag Program allows you to experience the full spectrum of Argentina's wingshooting. The duck/perdiz add-on is quoted upon request by our team, which covers the specialized setup, guides, and access to these unique hunting areas. Our multi-day packages are completely all-inclusive, covering luxury lodging, gourmet meals, open bar, professional guides, and handling all logistics like gun rentals and hunting licenses.

*(AWS Expert Note: Please be aware that our Mixed Bag programs, including Duck and Perdiz hunting, strictly run during the Argentine winter from mid-May to mid-August. For trips in November, we exclusively offer our world-renowned High-Volume Dove program, which is spectacular year-round!)*
