Q: what are the typical daily dove kill numbers for august and what's the lodge record for a single hunter in a day just wondering what to expect
That's a great question, and it highlights exactly what makes dove hunting in Argentina so exceptional!
For August, you can expect incredibly high-volume dove hunting. Argentina is world-renowned for its virtually limitless dove populations, and August is an excellent month with consistent flight patterns. While the actual number of doves taken daily ultimately depends on the individual hunter's skill and how much they wish to shoot, our guests often go through thousands of shells in a single day. The opportunities are truly endless, and you'll find yourself in the midst of non-stop action.
Regarding the lodge record for a single hunter in a day, while we prefer to focus on the overall premium experience rather than just the numbers, we have had some truly exceptional shooters. It's not uncommon for skilled hunters to shoot upwards of 3,000 to 5,000 doves in a single day, with some dedicated individuals pushing even higher, well into the 10,000+ range on their best days! The sheer volume of doves allows for such remarkable figures.
