Trip
Description: The Executive Director of the Argentina hunt
contact is a national who has lived in US part time for 20 years.
We have been very impressed with their understanding of hunting
and their honesty! They have assured us of a fantastic hunting adventure
down under!
"You'll
want to experience the magnificence of this country for yourself.
From the inspiration...to
the European influence, elegance and culture of Buenos Aires; the
tours
we offer are the result of a joint, painstaking effort by the native
Argentineans and
Far West Adventures."
"I
can say there is no other vacation destination on earth offers the
diversity, hospitality
and value you'll find in Argentina."
Robert Caere, Executive Director.
Province of Buenos Aires. Duck and Geese hunting areas
are located in the Province of Buenos Aires. There are 3 separate
hunting areas to choose from to offer more availability for the
best hunting for the time scheduled. All are within driving distance
of Ezeiza airport. Hunting places are ten to forty minutes drive
from lodging/Estancia's.
Hunting will be in the heart
of one of the most productive corn regions of the country. Also
there are plenty of lagoons and marshes, to make the magnificent
waterfowl habitat. The guide and his assistants will meticulously
arrange every detail of the field operation. They have all had over
5 years experience hunting these properties, plus numerous years
of personal hunting experience. The main guide speaks excellent
english.
Duck shooting will be from
blinds over decoys. One can expect to get several different duck
species (11 in area). Typically there are no limits (however once
there way a limit of 25 per day).
Goose
hunting will be in grain stubble fields with decoys. Layout blinds
or field blinds. No limits...so you can get a lot of practice for
the upcoming season....or break a new gun.
