Argentina Dove Hunt 2008

Dakota Hotspots - Mar. 14, 2008

Just returned from Argentina, had a blast and look forward to doing it again. Met up with some friends from Georgia who had done it before. It's very hard to explain in words how many doves there are. On the last morning of the hunt I was averaging 250 shots/hour for 3 straight hours and I was pacing myself (ended up going through 33 boxes that morning). Could of done a lot more damage. Ended up shooting over 2000 doves which is not a great number considering all the birds. Unfortunately in one of the pictures a parakeet flew into the line of fire, dad named him Petro Boss. He ended up being dad's pet for awhile. It was a great experience and I recommend it for anyone that likes to wingshoot. Take care.

P.S. I think the old man had the most fun, he was in the best spot for 3 days. The bird boys call him "RAMBO" because he kills so much. He was shooting close to a 1000 shots/day and averaging high 70% range.
