After meeting all the outfitters for both New Zealand and Argentina at the SCI show, I ended up booking a hunt for this year in April. It is kind of at the end of the roar (the rut when they roar like elk bugling). I just happened on this outfitter who had an opening at one of their lodges for one couple. Argentina Top Hunts
It is supposed to be unfenced and 125,000 acres. It’s a 5 night, 4 hunting day stay at the lodge and we will do a day in Buenos Aires on the way in and out. The hunt is fairly reasonably priced but it does have a sliding scale trophy fee based on the size of the animal taken. In addition to stag, they have water buffalo, blackbuck, axis deer, fallow deer and wild boar. Here’s a video about the lodge. Chischaca Lodge
So far, this outfitter has been quite easy to work with and they have “meet and greet” service in Buenos Aires to insure you get to your hotel and then to your internal flight. Not a bad way to start this retirement gig.
