Los Gauchos is in Gear and Ready for Hunting Season


Just received some magazines with great photos of dogs and the sad headlines of  "Hunting Season coming to a close..." awwww.

Well, good news hunting season is about to begin (and actually is year round for the dove hunting) at Los Gauchos Outfitters.  Los Gauchos is preparing as always, rice for the daily baiting - check.  Flight schedules to/from Miami set - check.

And good news and updates for the upcoming Uruguay duck hunting season.

First, flights - American Airlines has added a flight to their schedule to/from Montevideo. American Airlines now flies 4 flights per week to Montevideo.  We don't like to take credit, but now that Los Gauchos has 2 lodges ---we're just saying...thanks American Airlines for making it easier to get to Uruguay for duck hunting.

Second - Los Gauchos lodges - maybe you have not heard, Los Gauchos now has TWO, dos, 2, more than  one, duck hunting lodge.  Fortin Lodge is located in Chuy, Uruguay in the northeast part of Uruguay and provides the full days of duck hunting that Los Gauchos customers want.

We could go on and on...but we have duck hunting schedules to put together and hunting gear ready for their ride to Uruguay - so cheer up -- Hunting Season is about to start in Uruguay for the 2010 season.

Los Gauchos - we love creating a culture of excellence - our foundation of Uruguay duck hunting greatness.

Check out all of our Uruguay duck hunting destinations and let us know what you think....

Argentina Bird Hunting and Uruguay Hunting Trips --Coming Soon!

Yes, while the US is covered in snow, Argentina and Uruguay are enjoying 90 degree temperatures and a summer season like most.  Now, as we move to the middle of February and spring break and YES, we did say SPRING BREAK!  Then North America will quickly forget the cold, snowy days of February and be wishing they could have some nights less than 80 degrees.

Welcome to Argentina and Uruguay and specifically Argentina Bird Hunting and Uruguay Duck Hunting season.  Whoo hoo -- it's back better than ever.  Argentina has many more destinations such as:

Argentina doves, ducks, pigeons, AND Perdiz out of the same lodge - Estancia Estero and Rosybill Lodge

  • don't charge us since we can't find room in our luggage checklist to bring a gun case.
  • again, we are traveling way down south for duck hunting - show us some duck hunting!

Hunting - Singing - Ducks -Uruguay - Argentina - Go!

OK --while most of the blogs are about Uruguay hunting or bird hunting in Argentina and yes, sometimes  football (UT Longhorns..heard of them?)--I enjoy writing about events, people, and things I like.  So Los Gauchos Outfitters covers all of those subjects but so does singing and the Grammy's are on tonight.  While, I admit I'm a "thirty" something year-old, I do love music and the artists that are nominated for the Grammys.

A lot of the songs and music can be compared to hunting with Los Gauchos in Uruguay and Argentina.  Now, while the song "Paradise City" and Gun n Roses may start playing in your head...there are many more!

First, the artists today are moving from just pop or just country...think Taylor Swift.  She is not only an award winning amazing country artist, but she has become a pop superstar.  Los Gauchos Outfitters has moved into the dove hunting, fishing and pigeon hunting areas.  Los Gauchos is a popular duck hunting destination - in Uruguay we are number one.  From the Los Gauchos Uruguay Duck Hunting Club to the new Fortin Lodge destination, Uruguay duck hunting is our speciality.

Los Gauchos is a Cordoba Argentina reference and resource - with several lodges and rates (that all include a gun and tips), Cordoba is a classic and Los Gauchos is part of that classic - proudly.  Kind of like George Strait or Michael Jackson - classic.

Now artists today not only sing, but they dance, play an instrument and capture and keep the public wanting more.  Los Gauchos does too.  We can provide a 12 ga, 20 ga, fly-rod, book your flight to Santa Fe, Argentina, Buenos Aires, Argentina, Montevideo, Uruguay or get you on the boat to Colonia - AND provide outstanding bird hunting - ducks, doves, pigeons and Perdiz.  Los Gauchos is proud to be an artist for the hunting industry and continue to improve and keep our clients interests in mind.

Los Gauchos is proud to provide Uruguay pigeon hunting in the first class resort city of Uruguay - Punta del Este.

So, have fun watching your favorite artist perform or get acquainted with one you didn't know, and become a fan of Los Gauchos, we won't let you down - rock, country, pop, classical - we've got THE  song.

Uruguay and Argentina Hunting Trips - Travel Insurance-Los Gauchos



This Is Why You Need Travel Insurance For Your Next Trip:


Every year anglers and hunters spend thousands of dollars on their hunting and/or fishing vacation to South America...and every year some hapless individuals are met with disaster--of one kind or another.

In most cases, the event that ruins their trip is as benign as a missed flight connection, and in other cases, it is something more severe--such as an automobile accident while driving to and from the field. No matter how serious, or how benign the trouble is when it rears its ugly head, you are going to be glad you bought travel insurance. And let us add that Los Gauchos Outfitters provides Sportsman Travel Insurance.

One high quality seller of this insurance makes the claim, "If you can get in there, we can get you out!". When disaster strikes in the African desert, the jungles of Brazil, or deep in the heart of the Andes Mountains, you need coverage that will not only save you money, but time. One call to the insurance company can get the wheels in motion to your rescue. They have access to resources that you will not immediately have on hand (such as the contact info for the best and closest air ambulance operator), and these resources can save your life--because accidents, heart attacks, and strokes are time critical events that need to be dealt with immediately and correctly.

Typically, this coverage that will save your life costs roughly 3% of the cost of your trip, but it varies on a linear scale vis a vis your age. You don't need to buy it, until you need it--much like a raincoat and umbrella--but one is never sorry that they brought it when it starts to rain like hell. Don't get caught out in the rain, unprepared, when it comes to your health and livelihood. If you are injured in a foreign country, the cost of care and transportation back to your home can wipe out your savings at best, and completely ruin you financially at worst.

You play it safe at home. You don't take chances with your family, your health, and your business...yet so many get board an airplane to South America or Africa and suddenly believe that they are bulletproof.

You can pay for your travel insurance when you pay for your trip. If you have any questions, please contact our office-Los Gauchos- for more information, or to buy coverage.

Uruguay Duck Hunting -Los Gauchos Outfitters


Uruguay isn't trendy-it's timeless and we are talking not just about the culture but the duck hunting in Uruguay.

Los Gauchos has two lodges with a focus on the Uruguay duck hunting. And may we say - Fortin Lodge and Rio Branco (THE Los Gauchos Uruguay Duck Hunting Club) will knock your socks off.

Bookings have been strong, but don't worry for those duck hunters enjoying the last bit of North American duck hunting season, Uruguay still has some availability for the 2010 Uruguay duck hunting season.

Come one - yes, Los Gauchos welcomes single shooters, or come all (up to 8 hunters) and Los Gauchos will take you to the best duck hunting in Uruguay.

The Rio Branco or Uruguay Duck Hunting Club is located in the northeast part of Uruguay almost to the Brazilian border. On a private, large rice farm this comfortable lodge is set for the true duck hunter. Don't worry included: warm water, running water, double occupancy rooms, private bathrooms, large living room with satellite tv, and distance to the duck blind that again will knock your socks off! Five to 15 minutes to the duck blind and waders not needed. Oh, let us add as most do NOT - Los Gauchos includes 12 ga guns and all tips to their daily rate.

The Fortin Lodge is also becoming a fast and furious popular Los Gauchos Uruguay duck hunting destination. This lodge is located near the town of Chuy, again the border of Brazil. On and near rice fields and farms, the duck hunting is outstanding and the bonus of Perdiz hunting is available at Fortin.

Los Gauchos is duck hunting and prepping for the Uruguay Duck Hunting Season. After experiencing Uruguay duck hunting, Louisiana duck hunting will seem average.
