Sorry guys. I am not taking anyone anywhere.
Argentina is amongst the more expensive shikar destinations.
You are close shooters. A box of ammo costs $ 15.
The trophy fee of the animals you shoot is also comparitively expensive. A medium size deer/antelope would cost twice (if not more) as much as a deer/antelope of a similar size in Africa. Secondly the trophy fee depends on the size of the trophy. The larger the antlers, the more expensive the animal. Interstingly they also offer some Indian species like Black buck and Cheetal deer and are probably one of the best places for Dove shooting.
