Question 1

is global rescue insurance mandatory for the trip or is standard travel insurance enough

Accepted Answer

While Global Rescue offers specialized services that many of our clients appreciate for their comprehensive coverage in remote areas, it is not strictly mandatory for your trip with AWS Lodge. However, we **highly recommend** that all guests secure comprehensive travel insurance prior to their trip.

Standard travel insurance is generally sufficient, provided it offers robust coverage for medical emergencies, trip cancellations or interruptions, lost or delayed luggage, and any other unforeseen circumstances that might arise during international travel. It's crucial to review the policy details to ensure it meets your specific needs and covers activities like wingshooting.

Hello! Regarding Global Rescue for your December trip with your wife, while it is not mandatory, we **highly recommend** it for all our guests. It provides essential peace of mind for international travel and hunting, covering medical emergencies, evacuations, and other unforeseen circumstances that standard travel insurance might not. It's a personal decision to secure such coverage, separate from our lodge's offerings.

Our multi-day packages at AWS Lodge are completely all-inclusive, covering luxury lodging, gourmet meals, open bar, and professional guides, ensuring you have a seamless and worry-free hunting experience from the moment you arrive.

Since you're considering a trip in December, we'd love to help you plan the perfect experience! While our online calendar might show some dates as fully booked around that time, we frequently have hidden inventory.

Question 3

choke recommendations for doves vs ducks

Accepted Answer

That's a great question, and choke selection can significantly impact your success in the field!

For **dove hunting**, which often involves fast-flying birds at varying distances, an **Improved Cylinder (IC)** or **Skeet (SKT)** choke is generally recommended. These chokes provide a wider pattern, making it easier to hit doves, especially those flying close or across your path, without obliterating them.

For **duck hunting**, which typically involves larger birds and often requires longer shots over water, a **Modified (MOD)** or even a **Full (F)** choke can be more effective. These tighter chokes help maintain a dense pattern at greater distances, crucial for ethical duck hunting.

At AWS Lodge, we offer both incredible high-volume dove hunting and a thrilling mixed-bag program that includes duck hunting, providing a truly comprehensive wingshooting experience.

Question 8

clothing info for winter june-august

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your interest in Argentina Wingshooting! For winter hunting (June-August) in Argentina, it's best to be prepared for varying temperatures, from chilly mornings to mild afternoons. Layering is key to staying comfortable throughout the day.

Here’s a general guide for clothing:

*   **Layering System:** We recommend a three-layer system:
    *   **Base Layer:** Moisture-wicking thermal underwear (top and bottom) to keep you dry and warm.
    *   **Mid Layer:** A fleece jacket, wool sweater, or down vest for insulation.
    *   **Outer Layer:** A waterproof and windproof jacket. A quality softshell or light insulated jacket is often ideal.
*   **Pants:** Comfortable, durable hunting pants that are water-resistant. You might consider a pair of insulated or fleece-lined pants for colder days.
*   **Headwear:** A warm hat (beanie or wool cap) is essential for retaining body heat in the mornings. A baseball cap or wide-brimmed hat can be useful for sun protection during midday.
*   **Gloves:** Warm, waterproof gloves, especially for early morning hunts.
*   **Footwear:** Waterproof, comfortable hunting boots are crucial. We spend time in the field, and dry, warm feet make a big difference. Bring multiple pairs of wool or synthetic socks.
*   **Colors:** Camouflage or natural, muted colors (greens, browns, grays) are always recommended for hunting.

We want to ensure you have the most comfortable and successful hunting experience possible. To help me tailor the best information for you and send you a custom proposal, could you please share your email address? Also, what kind of hunting experience are you most interested in for your trip (e.g., high-volume doves, mixed bag)?

Question 9

for may trip, if we fly into cordoba or buenos aires, which airport ends up being a quicker total travel day to the lodge

Accepted Answer

For your May trip, flying into **Buenos Aires (EZE - Ministro Pistarini International Airport)** will definitely result in a quicker total travel day to the lodge.

Our lodge is conveniently located just 2 hours by car from EZE, and you won't need any domestic flights. This means you can land, enjoy a comfortable private transfer, and often be out in the field hunting doves on the very same afternoon you arrive! If you were to fly into Cordoba, you would then need an additional domestic flight to Buenos Aires, which would significantly extend your travel time.

Since you're considering a trip for May, we'd be delighted to check availability for you. While our online calendar might show some dates as fully booked around that time, we frequently have hidden inventory.
