South American dove shoot?

I ended up with 3 descarate stags, 3 buffalo, a blackbuck, russian boar and some kind of goat that looks like an ibex.
The hunt would be OK for a husband and wife team assumeing you both like walking and seistas. A working knowledge of Spanish would be good, since the guides couldn't say much more than "shoot", and " No problem". We got by without knowing a lick of Spanish, carried soley on the desire to hunt hard and have fun.

I found out about the outfitter when my partner emailled me and asked "Hey, ya wanna".
I used a Remington Custom shop .375 with 270 grain A-Frames and 300 grain Banded solids for the buffs and 2 of the stags. There's a Zeiss 3-9 Diavari on it. The buffalo are bigger than the African variety, and the guides don't carry rifles.
The second rifle was a Weatherby Ultralight weight that is rebarrelled with a #2 Gaillard barrel in .300 Win Mag, loaded with 168 grain TSXs and scoped with a VXL3 3.5-10 X 50mm with illuminated B&C reticle. I got to use the 300 yard crosshair for one shot, and got well into the infinity pin for another. Average range very short though.
Unless your wife is firmly in the supermodel category, I would suggest a set of mirrored sunglasses and blinders for yourself, and a blindfold for her. That might get you through Buenos Airies with your marriage intact. I've never seen so many hot women in my life.:eek:

Nice, What outfit did you hunt with ?

How was the Roar ?
 
Awsome, thanks for the details. I like that as it is a way of preparing for my own adventures with someones proven equiptment. As for the hot women I think I have a welding helmut around here somewhere. As requested pics would be awsome. How did the barnes solids perform?

We hunted with Poitahue, on what was booked as a post roar hunt. They were still going some mornings, but that was just luck. We primarily just still hunted the thick stuff, or in my case found the high ground and reached out a bit.
The solids did what they always do, made two holes and didn't produce much reaction. The A Frames really rattled their cage, staggered the buffs in a rather impressive fashion, and stayed in just like they are supposed to. Animals hit with the solids were already on the ground. I don't know how much better a buffalo bullet can get than those A Frames.
 
My 3 buffs got shot with a Remington .375 H&H from the custom shop, that I bought used off the EE along with the 3-9 Zeiss Diavari. Gotta save a buck where you can. ;)
Come to think of it, the Weatherby and scope came from the EE as well, but the barrel came from Gaillard, and Craige Douglas screwed them together.
