Question 1

what choke recommendations for doves vs ducks for a feb trip assuming im using 12 gauge

Accepted Answer

That's a great question for optimizing your hunt! For doves, which are fast-moving targets often shot at varying distances, an **Improved Cylinder or Modified choke** is generally recommended for a 12-gauge. This provides a good balance of pattern density and spread, allowing for effective hits without being too tight for closer shots.

For ducks, especially depending on the range and the specific species, a **Modified or Full choke** is often preferred. This helps maintain a dense pattern at longer distances, which is crucial for waterfowl. Our professional guides are always on hand to help you fine-tune your setup in the field, ensuring you have the best possible experience.

Since you're considering a trip in February, it's an excellent time to start planning! We specialize in crafting seamless, all-inclusive multi-day hunting experiences. While our online calendar might show some dates as fully booked around that time, we frequently have hidden inventory.

Question 5

choke recommendations for doves vs ducks what are yall seeing work best

Accepted Answer

That's an excellent question, and our professional guides are experts in helping our guests optimize their setup for the best hunting experience!

For **high-volume dove shooting**, we generally recommend more open chokes like Skeet, Improved Cylinder, or Light Modified. This provides a wider pattern that is very effective for the fast-flying doves typically encountered at closer to medium ranges in our fields, maximizing your success rate.

For **duck hunting**, where shots can often be at longer ranges and you're typically dealing with larger birds, a Modified or even Full choke is usually preferred to ensure tighter patterns and more effective shots at distance. Our guides are always on hand to assist you in the field with the optimal choke selection for the specific hunting scenario and your personal shooting style, ensuring you have the right equipment for both.

To help me tailor the best information for you and send you a custom proposal, could you please share your email address? Also, what time of year are you considering for your trip, and are you more interested in a pure dove hunt or a mixed bag experience that includes ducks and perdiz?

Accepted Answer

AWS Lodge specializes in providing an exclusive, fully private experience for our guests. Our lodge is designed to comfortably accommodate up to 8 single hunters, or 8 couples (a total of 16 people), ensuring an intimate and personalized stay.

For a private dinner event for 25 people, this would exceed our typical overnight guest capacity, as our focus is on smaller, private groups for a VIP hunting experience. However, we may be able to discuss special arrangements for events that do not involve overnight stays for all 25 guests.
