![]() Bolivia dove hunting is unmatched for the sheer numbers of eared doves. Bolivia is truly the new frontier for world-class eared dove hunting. The habitat, feeding flights and style of hunting closely resembles the classic era of Mexico whitewing shooting — small flocks and singles pouring into grain fields from surrounding roosting areas and then later returning to those roosts in larger flocks. There is one main distinction: in the bountiful plain of Bolivia's Gran Chaco region, there are vastly greater numbers of birds — a truly astonishing sight. At points during the morning and afternoon feeding flights it is possible to see thousands and even hundreds of thousands of birds in all directions. Hunters routinely fire 40, 60, 80 or more boxes of shells each day! "We shot in Argentina for many years, but our two trips to Bolivia has made us loyal fans of Bolivian Adventures. Jorge Molina has to be the best outfitter in the world and his wife has to be the best cook! Their lodge is fantastic, the volume and variety of shooting is just amazing, and it is only a six-hour flight from Miami" Matt Stolhandske, San Antonio, TX ![]() Bolivia — a shotgunner's paradise. The hunting day also resembles Mexico in that the birds fly primarily between 7 a.m. and 10 a.m. and then again mid to late afternoon—providing a nice break in the middle of the day. During this break hunters can either return to the lodge for lunch and a nap or they can opt for a wonderful asado picnic of grilled meats and game birds, salads, fresh baked breads etc. and rest in a hammock or on a cot. |
