Dove hunting in Cordoba Argentina should be on every wing shooters bucket list. The crew that we went with made the experience truly unforgettable. We were pampered from the second our wheels touched down in Argentina until the second we left. There were packed coolers full of food, water, soft drinks, and libations on every bus ride and in the field. The amount of birds you shoot is only limited by your shell budget. You will be provided with three 5 star meals per day, but expect to eat a lot of meat! Upon arrival, we were greeted by the staff outside the lodge provisioned with silver trays loaded with hor d’ourves and champagne flutes. The food service only escalated from there. After your morning shoot, lunch is provided in a nearby house or grilling area. After lunch, you can either go back to shooting right away, or take a nap in one of the many hammocks provided by the staff and rest up for the afternoon shoot. When the afternoon shoot is over, you are escorted back to the lodge for a massage or cocktail (or both). Contact us for information on booking an exciting and unforgettable trip like this one.

The Plotwatcher ($207) from Day 6 is a game changer. With ordinary trail cameras motion sensors are used to tell them when to take a photo. These motion sensors only capture game if it comes within about 40 feet of the camera. That’s where the Plot Watcher differentiates itself. It takes photos on a set schedule. You can set it to take photos every 5 to 10 seconds from dawn till dusk. The camera then condenses those images into a 10 minute long time lapse video. You can simply watch what happens in your food plot or move frame by frame. Imagine, a whole days worth of scouting in 10 minutes. Maybe your stand isn’t in the right place if you are bow hunting. With the knowledge this device provides, you’ll know exactly where you need to be.
