Great dove shooting in Cordoba

The shooting and the lodge

The comfortable Pica Zuro Lodge

Cordoba is with no doubt among the best places on earth for high volume dove shooting. The doves frequently seem to dim the sunlight. It’s where the eared doves fly in numbers estimated to be in tens of millions. Shooting opportunities are truly limitless.

Tight flocks and groups of doves are flying all day long giving you the opportunity to practise every angle of your shooting. It’s hard to believe this, you must be in the field and experience this yourself. Seeing is believing. You can enjoy the dove shooting all year around, in fact any week taken is a prime week, it’s more up to what you like best in temperature summer, autumn, winter or spring. Take your pick.

Field lunch , great break!

In addition to the doves the main target are Blue and Spotted pidgeons. Hunting takes places on a private property, with magnificent accommodations.

We take care of every detail of your trip and arrange for all documents and licences to import your guns in to Argentina, but if you prefer to travel light you can hire a shotgun with us. Either a semi automatic, over and under or a double barrel.
Our outfitters have been in Cordoba longer than anyone and they are surely doing a great job. Every single detail is taken care of. The head guides and some of the staff speak fluently English as well.

All service is first class, transportation to and from the airport in Cordoba and to and from the lodge to the fields is in Mercedes Benz vehicles. All modern comfort is provided at the lodge such as telephone and e-mail access. Even when out in the field you can call home with a satellite telephone!

At the lodge you will enjoy a swimming pool, billiard, satellite television and a lounge with a complete bar.
Great field lunches are taken every day in the field. There you will have great Argentinean steaks and wine. Afterwards you take a siesta for an hour or two and this moment is a real treat.

Pica Zuro is a very friendly and comfortable lodge.  It has eight spacious twin bedrooms all with private bathrooms. Verandas where you can sit and relax after a hard working shooting day. The food is as good as you will ever experience, full English breakfast, large BBQ for lunch in the field and three coarse dinner in the evening.

Tasty asado!
