Arrive into Cordoba and transfer to the lodge with a half day of shooting.

Day 3: Cordoba Province

Shoot morning and afternoon.

A typical day begins with a wake-up call at 7:00 a.m. and a full breakfast is served. You will depart for the shoot around 8:00 a.m.

Wake-up calls and departure times may vary a little, depending on the time of year and where you will be hunting that day. Most drives to the dove fields are 5-40 minutes from the lodge.

As to how many shells each hunter will shoot, it depends on the hunter; most hunters can expect to shoot three to four cases of shells per day.

Some days might be a little better, some days slightly less.

Once the group arrives at the selected field, each hunter will be issued a pick-up boy and a case of shells.

You will also have a dove stool stocked with cokes, beer and water to keep you refreshed. Most mornings will be very steady shooting over a harvested field or pass shooting.

Where the group goes for lunch depends on how far the drive is to the field, weather conditions, and how much everyone wants to shoot.

Obviously, the more time spent in the field, the more doves can be shot.

Many days, you will enjoy lunch in the field. A nearby shady area is set up for an Argentinean-style barbecue, and past visitors know that one thing the Argentineans can do is have a cookout.

You will enjoy grilled steaks, sausage, pork, fresh salads, bread and desserts. Water, soft drinks, and excellent local beers and wines round out the meal.

If the group stays in the field, there are hammocks where hunters can lay down for a nap.

On some days, you will return to the lodge for lunch and there will be time for a nap afterwards.

Depending on how the birds are flying, your afternoon shoot will be in the same field. However, if the birds are not coming in to feed, it is possible that the group will change locations.

Some afternoons, you will shoot the doves going back to the roost. Again, shooting should be very good, with the birds coming in flocks.

Shooting lasts until late in the afternoon, generally between 5:30 to 6:00 p.m.

After the shoot, the group will drive back to the lodge where there will be time for a drink and a hot shower before dinner.
