Question 1

Accepted Answer

AWS Lodge offers a truly luxurious and relaxing experience, not just for hunters but also for non-hunting companions. Many of our guests bring their wives, partners, or friends who prefer to enjoy the beautiful surroundings and amenities rather than participate in the hunt.

Here's what non-hunting companions can enjoy:

*   **Luxury Lodge Amenities:** Our exclusive lodge provides a serene and comfortable environment. Guests can relax by the pool, enjoy spa services (massages can be arranged upon request), read by the fireplace, or simply unwind in our spacious common areas.
*   **Gourmet Dining & Open Bar:** Everyone at AWS Lodge enjoys our exquisite gourmet meals prepared by our professional chefs, featuring traditional Argentine cuisine and international dishes. Our open bar is available throughout the day for beverages and cocktails.
*   **Beautiful Scenery & Relaxation:** The lodge is situated in a picturesque setting, perfect for leisurely walks, enjoying nature, or simply taking in the tranquility of the Argentine countryside.
*   **Cultural & Local Experiences:** Depending on interest, we can arrange local excursions such as visits to charming nearby towns, horseback riding, or even a traditional Argentine cooking class to experience the local culture.
*   **Personalized Service:** Our dedicated staff ensures that all guests, hunters and non-hunters alike, receive personalized attention and have a memorable stay.

Question 3

choke recommendations for doves vs ducks

Accepted Answer

That's a great question, and choke selection can definitely make a difference for a successful hunt!

For **dove hunting**, which often involves fast, erratic targets at relatively closer ranges, we generally recommend more open chokes. An **Improved Cylinder (IC)** or **Skeet (SKT)** choke is typically ideal, as they provide a wider shot pattern that's forgiving for fast-moving birds. Some hunters also find success with a Light Modified (LM) for slightly longer shots.

For **duck hunting**, where birds are often flying higher and at greater distances, tighter chokes are usually preferred to maintain a dense pattern. A **Modified (MOD)** or **Improved Modified (IM)** choke is a good all-around choice. For very high-flying ducks or longer shots, a Full (F) choke can be used, but it's important to practice with it to ensure your pattern is still effective at your desired range.

At AWS Lodge, our professional guides are always on hand to help you with choke selection and any other gear questions to ensure you have the best possible experience in the field.

Question 4

renting 20-gauge vs 12-gauge shotguns for the may dove trip, what's the reco for shell volume and recoil fatigue over a few days of high volume shooting

Accepted Answer

That's a great question, and it's something many hunters consider for high-volume dove shooting!

For a multi-day high-volume dove trip, recoil fatigue is a significant factor.
*   **20-gauge shotguns** are generally highly recommended for sustained shooting. They offer significantly less recoil than a 12-gauge, which means you can shoot thousands of rounds over several days with much less discomfort and fatigue. This allows for more consistent shooting performance throughout your trip. While shell volume might be slightly less per box, the overall comfort greatly outweighs this for most hunters.
*   **12-gauge shotguns** offer a bit more payload and a wider variety of loads, but the recoil can become very noticeable and tiring after just a few hours of high-volume shooting, let alone multiple days. Unless you are very accustomed to shooting a 12-gauge extensively and are confident in managing the recoil, a 20-gauge often leads to a more enjoyable and productive experience at AWS Lodge.

At AWS Lodge, we specialize in providing an all-inclusive luxury experience. This means that while you're asking about specific gear like gun rentals, these are seamlessly handled as part of your multi-day package. We arrange high-quality firearm rentals for you, ensuring you have the right equipment for an unforgettable trip, whether you prefer a 20-gauge for comfort or a 12-gauge.

Regarding shell prices, they vary depending on market conditions, so we recommend confirming the exact price directly with our team closer to your trip. Gun rental fees and hunting licenses are standard fees managed seamlessly by our team upon booking.

Question 5

our flight gets in late to eze around 10pm for our may trip how do we get from eze to aep for the domestic flight connecting to cordoba the next morning

Accepted Answer

Thank you for reaching out! It seems there might be a slight misunderstanding regarding our location. You'll be happy to hear that **AWS Lodge is conveniently located just two hours from Buenos Aires' Ezeiza International Airport (EZE), so there's absolutely no need for a domestic flight to Cordoba or any other airport!** This means you can land at EZE, and we'll arrange your direct transfer to the lodge, typically allowing you to start hunting the very same day you arrive (or the next morning, given your late arrival).

Our multi-day packages are completely all-inclusive and handle all the logistics from EZE directly to our lodge, ensuring a seamless and stress-free start to your hunting adventure. Round-trip airport transfers from EZE directly to the lodge are typically estimated around quoted directly by our human team based on current market rates, but this is subject to market variations. Our human team will confirm the exact transportation cost for your specific dates.

Accepted Answer

We understand that relaxation and comfort are key to a perfect getaway, especially for your wife! While professional massage services are not a standard, included offering with our packages, we pride ourselves on providing a highly personalized luxury experience at AWS Lodge. We are often able to arrange special services like professional massages with prior notice through our human team, ensuring every guest's needs are met for ultimate relaxation after a day of activities or simply enjoying the tranquil surroundings.

Question 7

for chokes, do you guys have separate recommendations for doves and ducks or can i stick with something common for both

Accepted Answer

That's a great question regarding chokes for your hunt!

For **doves**, which are fast and abundant, a more open choke like **Improved Cylinder (IC)** or **Skeet** is generally recommended. This allows for a wider shot pattern, increasing your chances of hitting these quick birds at closer ranges.

For **ducks**, which are often shot at longer distances and require more penetration, a tighter choke like **Modified (M)** or **Full (F)** is typically preferred. This keeps the shot pattern denser for better reach and knockdown power.

Many hunters bring multiple chokes and change them depending on the species they are targeting. If you're planning a mixed bag hunt, you might find yourself switching between them.

At AWS Lodge, we specialize in all-inclusive multi-day packages. While we provide gun rentals and all the logistics, our team can offer personalized recommendations based on your experience and the specific conditions during your trip. We handle all the details so you can focus on the hunt.

To help me tailor the best information for you and potentially send you a custom proposal, could you please share your email address? Also, what time of year are you considering for your trip, and how many hunters would be in your group?

We can comfortably accommodate up to 8 single hunters or 8 couples, offering a truly VIP experience.

Question 10

trying to figure out flights for may, what's easier logistically flying into cordoba (cor) vs buenos aires (eze/aep) for getting to the lodge

Accepted Answer

For guests of AWS Lodge, flying into **Buenos Aires (EZE)** is by far the easiest and most recommended option. Our lodge is conveniently located just two hours from EZE, meaning you won't need any additional domestic flights. You can land at EZE and be hunting doves the very same afternoon!

Flying into Cordoba (COR) or Buenos Aires' domestic airport (AEP) would add significant logistical complexities and travel time, as you would then need to arrange further ground transportation or domestic flights to reach our area near EZE. We specialize in making your arrival seamless, with direct transfers from EZE being a standard part of our service.

Since you're planning for May, which is a fantastic time to visit, I highly recommend reaching out to our human team to confirm availability and discuss your itinerary. While our online calendar might show some dates as fully booked around that time, we frequently have hidden inventory.
