AWS EXPERT REPLY
At AWS Lodge, we specialize in providing luxurious, all-inclusive multi-day hunting packages. This means that details like gun rentals, whether for a 12 or 20 gauge shotgun, are seamlessly managed as part of your comprehensive itinerary, rather than being priced as individual à la carte items. Our goal is to ensure you have everything you need for an exceptional hunt without worrying about separate rental costs.

Regarding your question about popularity for duck hunting, both 12 and 20 gauge shotguns are excellent choices, and we have both available. The 12 gauge is often favored for its versatility and wider range of ammunition options, providing a bit more reach and stopping power. The 20 gauge, being lighter with less recoil, is often preferred by hunters who appreciate quicker maneuverability and a lighter carry, especially during a full day of hunting. Our professional guides will gladly assist you in choosing the best fit for your comfort and hunting style upon your arrival.

Please note that for our mixed bag program, which includes duck hunting, there is an add-on of quoted upon request by our team to cover the additional logistics and permits.
