Do you dream of ducks coming in waves, feet down, over the dekes?

It’s ok, we did too, but it is not a dream. Duck Hunting in Argentina is not like any other. Mile after mile of grain fields, marshes and potholes are filled with vast numbers of ducks that have never seen a hunter. These ideal conditions make our private ranches a place where multiple species of duck thrive and migrate year after year. We regularly take bags mixed with Rosy-billed Pochard, Red Shovelers, Brazilian Speckled Teal, Silver Teal (Cappuccino Teal) , Cinnamon Teal, White-cheeked Pintail, Yellow-billed Pintail, Black Bellied Tree Duck and Chiloe Widgeon.

Rancho Salvaje’s private duck marshes and ranches provide the exclusive hunting in private blinds and individual attention. Your duck hunt begins with a delicious breakfast before you are driven to ponds a short distance away. Hunting is done in blinds either as a single hunter or in pairs. Your guide sets the decoys, sees to your needs in the field, retrieves your ducks, and a strap of 50 ducks can get heavy even on our short walk back to the truck.

The 2010 duck hunting season in Argentina has been extraordinary, again! We are duck hunting in the Buenos Aires and La Pampa provinces of Argentina and have incredible numbers of ducks that allowed limits in minutes. This is allows for a gourmet lunch featuring the incredible wines of Argentina, a nice nap, and an afternoon excursions for dove, perdiz, pigeon, wild boar and other big game animals.

Beautiful Ducks of Argentina

Many hunters come looking to take home these beautiful ducks to add to the wall or mantle. Our experienced guides can skin and prepare your these beautiful birds for your taxidermist at home.

The Silver Teal, Red Shoveler, and Chiloe Widgeon are incredible mounts next to their cousins from the north. The greatest trophy is fill out the “Pintail Trifecta” that is to add the two beautiful pintail ducks common to this area, the White Cheeked Pintail and the Yellow Billed Pintail, to a North American Pintail. These three birds compromise all the American pintails and make a beautiful mount.

Duck hunting in July, it’s not just for South Louisiana
