Have you ever wondered what it would be like to hunt ducks at the turn of the century when ducks
blackened the sky and the laws and limits were liberal? Those days are long gone for the North
American duck hunter. But days of hunting glory are still available ... A continent away await virgin
lands that yield unimaginable duck hunting opportunities known by few. We have found a destination
that combines an abundant population of many different species of waterfowl with pristine wetlands...
truly an idyllic experience for the avid duck hunter.
Join us at Southern Flight Outfitters… Argentina’s Premier Waterfowl Outfitter
Southern Flight Outfitters is proud to offer two world-class lodges for the 2010 hunting season.
We currently operate out of both the Buenos Aires and Entro Rios Provinces in Argentina.
Our goal is to provide the highest quality duck hunting in Argentina and our program is the
closest you will come to experiencing the glory of the traditional duck hunting experience
Ethics and conservation
Southern Flight Outfitters is committed to both high quality hunting and conservation. By leasing wetlands for
hunting Southern Flight Outfitters is making wetland conservation economically viable for local landowners
and farmers. With the understanding that wetlands are valuable resources both environmentally and
economically, local populations will protect their wetlands for future generations. We do shoot a high
volume of birds but our impact on bird populations is minimal; twice as many ducks are killed
each day of hunting season in the Mississippi Flyway than are killed in an entire year in Argentina.
Argentinean bird populations have grown due to the introduction of intensive agricultural practices.
This is especially true with the dove population; without some population reduction, doves will decimate
entire fields of grain. As conservationists we are charged with both conserving lands and species and<
brining balance to out of control populations. Through hunting, Southern Flight Outfitters is reducing
dove numbers and changing their feeding patterns; this has stopped the widespread poisoning
that not only kills doves and ducks but also the scavenger species that feed off the poisoned birds.
