Q: what's the actual difference between a mixed bag hunt and a dove-only hunt for november, like daily bird count and type of hunting scenarios
Hello! That's an excellent question, and understanding the difference between our high-volume dove-only hunt and our mixed bag program is key to planning your perfect trip to AWS Lodge.
High-Volume Dove-Only Hunt:
This program is all about pure, exhilarating high-volume dove shooting. Argentina is world-renowned for its incredible dove populations, and with this option, you'll experience truly unlimited doves. Hunters typically shoot anywhere from 1000 to 2000 shells per day, sometimes even more! The hunting scenarios involve fast-paced pass shooting over feeding fields and roosts, often from comfortable blinds or natural cover. It's an action-packed experience focused solely on the thrill of high-volume dove shooting, and it's available year-round, including November. You can learn more here: High-Volume Doves
Mixed Bag Program:
Our mixed bag program offers a more diverse hunting experience, combining the incredible high-volume dove shooting with other exciting species. While doves remain a central part of the hunt, you'll also have the opportunity to pursue ducks and perdiz (the availability of which in November our team can confirm based on specific season dates).
• Doves: You'll still enjoy the same high-volume dove shooting as in the dove-only program.
• Ducks: Typically involves early morning hunts from specially designed blinds over decoys in our private lagoons and wetlands. These hunts offer a different kind of challenge and atmosphere.
• Perdiz: This is an upland bird hunt, conducted over pointing dogs in open fields, providing a classic walked-up bird hunting experience.
For the duck and perdiz portions, there are regulated daily bag limits, ensuring sustainable hunting practices. This program allows you to experience the best of Argentina's wingshooting diversity. You can explore it further here: Mixed Bag Program

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.
