Q: whats the best clothing to pack for winter in june-august

AWS EXPERT REPLY
For winter hunting in Argentina, typically from June to August, the key is layering to adapt to varying temperatures throughout the day. While days can be crisp and sunny, mornings and evenings can be quite cold, especially in the field.

Here’s what we recommend packing to ensure you're comfortable and prepared for your wingshooting adventure with AWS Lodge:

1. Base Layers: Start with good quality thermal underwear (tops and bottoms) made of merino wool or synthetic materials. These wick away moisture and provide essential warmth.
2. Mid-Layers: Fleece jackets, sweaters, or insulated vests are perfect for adding warmth without bulk. You'll want to be able to add or remove these easily.
3. Outer Shell: A waterproof and windproof hunting jacket and pants are crucial. Look for something durable and breathable. Camouflage patterns are not strictly necessary for dove hunting, but earth tones are always a good choice.
4. Headwear: A warm beanie or hat is essential to retain body heat, especially during early morning hunts.
5. Gloves: Insulated, waterproof gloves are highly recommended to keep your hands warm and protected.
6. Socks: Multiple pairs of warm, moisture-wicking socks (wool or synthetic) are a must. Consider bringing a thinner pair for layering under thicker ones if needed.
7. Footwear: Comfortable, waterproof hunting boots are critical. Ensure they are well broken-in before your trip. You'll be spending time walking in the fields, and dry, warm feet make all the difference.
8. Casual Lodge Wear: For evenings at the lodge, bring comfortable, relaxed clothing. Our lodge offers a luxurious and cozy atmosphere, perfect for unwinding after a day of hunting.
9. Sun Protection: Even in winter, the sun can be strong. Don't forget sunglasses, sunscreen, and a lip balm with SPF.

"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."

"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."
