Upon arrival in Buenos Aires, Liliana, our experienced guide, picked them up in Ezeiza, and then left the luggage at the hotel. Everyone was ready to start learning about this amazing city of Buenos Aires.

Buenos Aires is a magical city. Legally called City of Buenos Aires or Buenos Aires, is the capital of Argentina and the main urban center of the country. It is located in the central-eastern region, on the western shore of the River Plate, in the Pampas plains. From Buenos Aires there is many flight to Cordoba city with Aerolineas Argentinas or LAN Argentina airlines.- It is About 1 hour flight.

They had lunch with Lili, and from there, they went to make sightseeing around the city. They were fascinated! The most important thing was going to the zoo; Cory and Dirk walked around and enjoyed the moment.

The next day Cordoba is waiting! The hunting party begins! I picked them up at the airport and gave them a welcome speech, telling them about this beautiful city as Cordoba is.

Around 12 am, after one night in Buenos Aires, we welcome them to our city. I told Dirk, Mary, Cory and Lacy that we were 40 minutes far from the field where we first had lunch. I get in touch by radio on my way to the lodge, with our chef David, who is waiting for us with lunch ready.

When we arrived to the lodge, they could not wait to have lunch, since they knew they were going to try the best Argentinian Asado, made with loin, chorizo, pork ribs, chicken etc. 

After lunch, I offered Mary and Cory two shotguns short cylinder heads we have; Benelli Montefeltro and Beretta 391 Urika, both cal 20. They were surprised when placed on their shoulders; those are very comfortable shotguns that fit very well in people of average height. We talked about security and we are ready to start.

Pigeons are flying in all directions and our field assistants are prepared to take them to each hunting spot. Each attendee prepares, before the hunt, the blind or hunting spot with branches and bushes from the area. In order to do that, each one has a bowie knife INCOLMA of high quality, which is sharpened every week. The hunting spot should be of about 1.50 meters or 1.65 meters depending on the client and place so that they are well covered and camouflaged from the doves. It is commonly armed with piquillín and other branches of autochthonous trees.

The doves are coming to the roost at 3:30 pm, as at this time of year birds migrate to lower areas searching for food. It is a special moment, and after a few harangues, as if they were a football team, the hunt begins. We quickly realize that they are experienced and very good hunters.-

Gaby and Santiago are the field assistants of our guests. About 3 hours and a half, after more than 750 shots fired, Dirk comes and says “it’s amazing how many doves there are at this field! I feel amazed by the service in the field, I feel like a king!” 

Then we returned to the lodge where Maidel is waiting for us, like Cory’s masseurs, eager for her first massage after 750 shots fired. We can say it was an excellent day. Our friends are at the lodge, very relaxed and happy, I say goodnight and retire to organize the next day of hunting, leaving everyone with Maidel.

Cory returned renewed from her massage, recommending them to all her family. 

Did you know that massages after hunting are very popular? In every group, each person takes massages once or twice, it feels very, very relaxing and refreshing, finishing the evening with one of our experienced masseurs staff.  There are two types of massages. Both massage seeking release muscle tension and combat pain. 

Dirk, shoot a parrot and when I grabbed it, he was alive! It bit him and Cory started laughing a lot! I remember Lacy and Cathy telling the anecdote; so fun!  

After the spectacular dinner at Plaza Real Lodge, laughing and drinking, we went to sleep to enjoy a new day.

TESTIMONIAL

The experience I had with my family at Pointer Outfitters was more than we could have asked for.

The travel experience was made great from purchasing the tickets and hotel for a night in the capital to rides to and from the airport. Every day we woke up to an amazing breakfast. We had so many dove and some of the best bird boys you could ask for. The lunch in the field was always something amazing. When we arrived back at the lodge we were always greeted with a friendly staff and a glass of orange juice. The dinner was always great and it made a perfect time to share our hunting experience with the other hunters.

The lodge offered an amazing massage that was perfect after a long day of shooting at more dove than you could count.

Our staff was always friendly. Pablo and Maidel were both so friendly and did everything in their power to make our family hunting trip the best. All of the staff made our trip more than we could ask for.

This was the best hunting trip ever and that was all thanks to the amazing staff.

If you want to experience a hunt that will keep you driving for more, this is the place to go. As a female hunter I was skeptical about hunting with a bunch of guys, but I was treated like any other hunter, royalty. I currently struggle with Celiac disease, and cannot consume foods with gluten, or I become very ill. The staff went out of their way, driving all over town, just to find snacks for me. Oh and every meal was absolutely delicious, especially lunch in the field! The hunting and staff service is amazing. The bird boys work so hard to build blinds and track the best spots to hunt. Everyone is so friendly and helpful with anything you might need. Let's not forget about the option for a massage after each hunt, best decision EVER. I recommend this hunt to any hunter out there that wants to have a lifetime experience that they will NEVER forget. I plan on making another trip back to hunt in the future!

We came to Argentina for a Dove hunt with Pointer Wingshooting. They helped us out every step of the way. Pablo and Maidel helped us out every step of the way from the moment we started planning until we left .They have a Great staff. Martin is a great guy he was at the airport to pick us up and take us to the field . He took us to the field every morning and brought us back in the evening. Plus he would come check us threw out the day. I can say we had the Best Bird Boys Gabby (#1) and Leon. They were a great help the whole time. We laughed a lot and had a great time. Everyone was always smiling . Everybody worked hard for our Family. We made a lot of new friends and memories. Everyone from the field to Lodge worked hard to let my family have a great time. We flew in a day early to Buenos Aire and LiLi picked us up and gave us a tour . She did a great job. She made sure we got to our Hotel and took us for lunch. Then Juan took us the next day to the Airport for our Hunt. The food was fantastic in the field and at the Lodge. The staff at the Lodge always greeted you with a smile. Everyone with Pointer Wingshooting worked hard and we appreciate everyone and everything they did for The Bland Family. Hope to come back and Dove Hunt again. Words are hard to describe how much fun we had because it was so awesome! Yall have the best staff anyone could ask for.

 Thank You

From start to finish Pablo and his crew helped me arranged our flight plan, tour of the city, special meal planning for my daughter, wonderful bird boys, great guns and ammo, meeting new friends, meals and commendation fit for a King! I could not be any happier, the whole trip was unbelievable. Pablo and all the Pointer Outfitter crew is Superior, this trip was are first ever family trip out from our country we had many different new experiences, I am so proud that I found this crew to be so helpful. The dove hunting is amazing with many many birds but this hunting trip would not be as great if it wasn’t  for the positive attitude everyone had, I was excepted as a friend not a customer. Many thanks to all, I know everyone worked really hard! Pointer Outfitters is the finest group of people you can meet, people who care with their hearts ! Argentina dove hunting at its finest, a hunters dream come true enjoyed with my wife and two daughter.

Love you guys!!!!!
