Long as this thread has turned into a travelogue on South America, let me make this somewhat educated observation: The dove only trips are TOO much dove shooting and the shells at $12 a box add an unexpected and substantial expense. If you go, book a mixed-bag type trip where you shoot doves a couple of days to get it out of your system, and then ducks in the mornings a few days mixed with afternoon perdiz hunts over pointing dogs or decoyed picazura and spot-wing Pigeon shooting in the afternoon. For perdiz or ducks the trip needs to be booked during their Fall season which is May to July. Uruguay is a little less expensive than Argentina..Geo
