The Hunting - Guayascate Dove Lodge

 

Located in the heart of Argentina, Cordoba is a fertile and productive agricultural area nestled in the foothills of the Sierras Chicas. Cordoba is known worldwide as the premier location for year round dove hunting. The Guayascate Lodge is situated on 20,000 acres of this land’s prime dove roosting habitats. Doves thrive in the area’s mild climate and have reached robust population numbers.

Eared Dove roost in the surrounding hills and mountains of Cordoba. Each morning, they leave their roost and come in low in groups of 5 to 30 to feed in nearby fields. The shooting is typically over wheat, sunflower, sorghum or corn fields. The species is so prolific, there are days you can expect to shoot a minimum of 1,500 rounds.

 

The morning commute to the fields is a quick 3 to 20 minute drive. Each hunter is accompanied with their own experienced professional bird assistant, who will provide shells, act as a loader, retrieve downed birds and keep cool drinks at the ready. At noon, groups gather in a shady grove of trees for a traditional Argentine asado (barbeque) complete with salads, gourmet desserts and an exquisite wine selection.

Location - Guayascate Dove Lodge Cordoba, Argentina

 

Guayascate is located in the northern part Cordoba, found in central Argentina. The lodge is a 1 ½ hour drive from the Cordoba International Airport. The most common flight options are to fly from Santiago, Chile or Buenos Aires direct into Cordoba.

Species - Eared Dove


The Eared Dove is the most prominent game bird in the area. This bird was named Eared Dove for a dark patch of feather on the side of the bird’s upper cheek that looks like an ear. These doves are the size of the popular Mourning Dove in North America, and in the hand, it is difficult to tell the two species apart. In the Cordoba region, farming practices and vast roost areas allow these birds to thrive at epic population levels. Various recent estimates put the Eared dove populations in excess of fifty million birds.

Guayascate Dove Lodge - Client Testimonials

 

   In my twenty years of enjoying the sport of wingshooting in Argentina, I have been to numerous lodges with several outfitters, always demanding the higher end facilities and convenient shooting locations. After five visits to Guayascate since its opening, my search for the perfect lodging and wingshooting is complete!!!


-     C. K., Alabama

   

We had a wonderful time.  The lodge exceeded my expectations.  The suites were luxurious, were clean and well cared for.  The food was terrific, consistently well prepared, and again above my expectations.

 

How can I describe the hunting?  It was unbelievable.  The birds never stopped flying.  Shooter po

sitioning was perfect.  The bird boys were terrific as loaders.  We used the Beretta O/U and they performed flawlessly.

 

   Most importantly all of your staff made the entire group very comfortable and were constantly asking if there was anything they could do for us. Clearly the best Lodge and shooting experience my son in law and I have ever had.


-  Anthony Marlon



Every element of our trip was FIRST CLASS. Guayascate certainly is the best facility in all of Argentina. Your staff did an excellent job; many of them we have met in years past. Food menu and quality was very well done. I believe I had the best steak of my lifetime at dinner there. The doves were thick and we had a very busy pigeon shooting day also. Many thanks to Elizabeth and Caroline who handled all the reservation details and also to you and your entire staff for offering the very best in service.  See you soon!
