Duck Numbers – Duck Hunting – Argentina
by Douglas Larsen If you have been lucky, you have been in Argentina recently, hunting ducks, or maybe shooting doves, or perdiz and pigeons. I hope so. I have not made my way to Argentina (yet) this summer, and I’m running out of time. If you have been away, perhaps you have not heard the …

There are More Ducks On That Side – Duck Hunting
by Douglas Larsen It’s the oldest joke in waterfowl hunting. An old fellow looks up at a “V” shaped formation of ducks migrating across the sky. He looks at his companion, and says, “Do you know why the one side of the “V” is longer than the other?” The companion, expecting some scientific factoid about …

Decoy Tip – Duck Hunting in Argentina
by Douglas Larsen If you hunt waterfowl with some regularity, you probably have at least a dozen decoys stored in your barn, or your garage, or under the porch at your duck camp. If you are really over the top (like me) you may have several hundred decoys at your disposal. Some duck camps will …

Anyone? – Duck Hunting
by Douglas Larsen I have seen these things advertised for years. If you have read a sporting magazine in the last fifteen years, you have probably seen a photo of these fellas..one stuck in the mud, and one standing on top of it. This morning I read a post in a popular forum about these …

Los Crestones Lodge – Hunting Report May 2016
This year we started with slightly more water than the average of last season. More resident ducks (mostly teal) announced a good early season. Some rainfall during April gave us plenty of good duck water to produce good duck hunts all of May. Unlike previous years, we started to get cold weather in late April, …

Safari Club Show
No matter where you live, February is a tough month. There isn’t a lot to do if you are a hunter or shooter. Most of the northern climes are gripped by winter, and it is summer in South America. February in Buenos Aires is like August in Houston, just plain hot. If you need a …

On August 30, Gisela, in charge of David Denies social responsibility in Cordoba, helped organize a big party for the children from the community centers and surrounding areas.

CORDOBA DOVE SHOOTING REPORT
During August and September, my two favorite months for dove shooting, birds were very strong in the hills, and hatching. For the last 7 years we’ve been in a drought, so farmers have not been seeding winter wheat. Thanks to this year’s rainy weather, all the fields are green with winter wheat. It’s good news …

JACANA DUCK HUNTING REPORT
Duck season has come to an end at Jacana Lodge. During March and April we had record rainfall across most of the country, and our area was no exception. Fortunately, by early winter the rains diminished and the water levels slowly decreased. We saw impressive numbers of ducks, but they had so much food and …
