Dove Shooting
To experience the very best the country has to offer, we use the very best Outfitters. Alex and Zeke Hayes have spent over 20 years exceeding their client’s expectations and developing a reputation as the finest in the business. H & H Outfitters own and control over 20,000 acres of the best land in the heart of the prime roosting areas in Argentina. In addition, they plant crops exclusively for Doves on their land and use no-till methods which provide consistent and unlimited amounts of food.
By practising these game management techniques, they are the only Outfitter in the area that offers excellent shooting throughout the entire year. In addition to the outstanding shooting and accommodation on offer with H&H Outfitters, Criddle Fieldsports will ensure your entire trip to Argentina is second to none. We organise every aspect of your trip, our local support team will be on hand to help and assist you throughout your stay both in Buenos Aires and Cordoba.
A Typical Day
A typical shooting day starts after a sumptuous breakfast, with departure to the fields by 8am. The shooting fields at each Lodge are carefully rotated and rested to assure maximum bird numbers. Driving distance to the fields ranges between 5 and 50 minutes in their luxury 15 passenger vans with air conditioning, refreshments and two-way radios. Each client shoots with their own experienced and professional bird boy, who will provide cartridges, act as a loader, retrieve downed birds and keep cool drinks ready. Shooting continues until noon, when the group gathers in a shady grove of trees for a traditional Argentine asado (barbecue) complemented with salads, gourmet desserts and fantastic wines. After lunch and an optional siesta, the shoot continues until approximately 6pm. Upon returning to the lodge, relax with drinks and canapés while preparing for dinner.
