Q: what are the main differences between the mixed bag and dove-only hunts in october like what species would we actually target in mixed bag

AWS EXPERT REPLY
AWS Lodge offers exceptional experiences for both High-Volume Dove and Mixed Bag hunts. The main difference lies in the variety of species you'll target.

For a Mixed Bag hunt, especially in October, you would primarily focus on:
High-Volume Doves: This is always a staple, offering incredible shooting opportunities.
Ducks: Argentina is renowned for its diverse duck species, and October is still an excellent time for duck hunting.
Perdiz: These fast-flying upland birds provide a classic walked-up shooting experience with pointing dogs.

Our High-Volume Dove-Only program, as the name suggests, focuses exclusively on the incredible dove population, often described as the highest volume dove shooting in the world.

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.

"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."

Michael S. Verified Hunter

"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."

Robert T. Verified Hunter

"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."
