Question 2

for our feb trip what kind of temp drops are typical in the early mornings

Accepted Answer

For a trip in February, which is summer in Argentina, you can expect warm temperatures during the day, often reaching into the 80s or even 90s Fahrenheit (27-35°C). However, early mornings, especially just before and around sunrise, can still have a noticeable drop in temperature.

It's typical for the temperature to cool down into the 60s Fahrenheit (15-20°C) during the early morning hours, particularly when you're out in the field. This makes for very pleasant conditions for the start of your hunt. We always recommend dressing in layers so you can adjust comfortably as the day warms up.

Question 7

what clothing do you recommend for the winter months june august when it's colder

Accepted Answer

For hunting in the winter months of June, July, and August in Argentina, when temperatures can be quite cool, especially early mornings and late evenings, layering is key. We recommend the following:

*   **Base Layers:** Start with moisture-wicking thermal base layers (like merino wool or synthetics) to keep you warm and dry.
*   **Mid-Layers:** Add a fleece jacket or a warm sweater for insulation.
*   **Outer Layer:** A waterproof and windproof hunting jacket is essential to protect against the elements. A good quality, insulated jacket will make a big difference.
*   **Pants:** Durable, warm, and water-resistant hunting pants are ideal.
*   **Headwear:** A warm hat or beanie is crucial, as a lot of body heat is lost through the head.
*   **Gloves:** Insulated, waterproof gloves are highly recommended to keep your hands warm and protected.
*   **Socks:** Thick, wool, or synthetic blend socks will provide warmth and comfort inside your boots.
*   **Footwear:** Comfortable, waterproof, and insulated hunting boots are a must.
*   **Colors:** Earth tones or camouflage are generally preferred for hunting.

Accepted Answer

That's a great question! Our expert guides at AWS Lodge are very experienced in helping our guests select the optimal chokes for both doves and ducks.

Generally, for high-volume dove shooting, many prefer Modified or Improved Cylinder chokes, as they offer a good balance of pattern density and spread for the fast-paced, close-to-medium range shots you'll encounter. For ducks, especially in April, a Modified or Full choke is often ideal, depending on the specific hunting conditions and typical shooting distances at our private lagoons.
