Q: what's the actual difference in hunt structure and bird count between mixed bag and dove only options

AWS EXPERT REPLY
At AWS Lodge, both our High-Volume Dove and Mixed Bag programs offer an exceptional wingshooting experience, but they cater to different preferences regarding species and variety.

High-Volume Dove Hunting:
This option is entirely focused on the incredible dove population in Argentina. You'll experience truly unparalleled volumes, often described as 'unlimited' doves. The hunt structure involves multiple shooting sessions per day, primarily from fixed blinds or natural cover, targeting these fast-flying birds. It's a pure adrenaline rush for those who want to shoot thousands of rounds and perfect their technique on a single species.

Mixed Bag Program:
Our Mixed Bag program offers a more diverse hunting experience, allowing you to target three exciting species: doves, ducks, and perdiz.
Doves: You'll still enjoy high-volume dove shooting, similar to the dove-only program, ensuring plenty of action.
Ducks: We hunt ducks over water, typically from blinds, targeting a variety of species found in our prime lagoons.
Perdiz: This is a classic upland hunt, usually done over pointing dogs in open fields, offering a different challenge and pace.
This program provides a fantastic variety, allowing you to experience different hunting styles and target different birds throughout your trip.

"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."

"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."
