Hunting in Argentina: Some hunts are about chasing one species. Others are about chasing a feeling — one that shifts as the land changes, as the animals change, as you change.
Argentina offers both.
This isn’t a place with just red stag. It’s a place with variety. Contrast. And a rhythm that moves from low plains to tangled forest, from hoofed thunder to silent approach. At Andalen Lodge, that range is real — and it’s what makes each day different from the last.
So the question becomes:
What do you want to hunt in Argentina? Before booking your red stag hunting in Argentina adventure, decide which species fire you up.
Red Stag
The one that built the legend. March to July— the roar tearing through the trees, bulls walking the ridgelines, eyes wide, breath heavy. You glass early. You move slow. When it happens, it happens fast.
Water Buffalo
Big. Quiet. Heavy. The kind of animal you don’t hear until it’s too late. You follow tracks through thick brush, sidearm ready. You stop often. You watch. You listen. And when it comes time to shoot, there’s no second-guessing.
Axis Deer
Spotted, alert, and fast. They melt into cover, then bolt without warning. It’s a test of patience and positioning — of timing over terrain. Every encounter feels earned.
Fallow & Mouflon
If you like contrast, this is where it shows up. Fallow bucks drift through the timber like ghosts. Mouflon navigate rock and edge like they’ve done it for centuries. Both are about reading behavior more than distance.
Wild Boar
No glamour. No setup. Just rough country and real shots. Whether it’s first light or last light, this is a hunt with grit built into it. You don’t overthink it. You go.
Multi-Species Days
What makes Argentina different? You can stalk a red stag at sunrise… and trail buffalo by noon. Then close the day with eyes on blackbuck or boar. It’s not about adding to a list. It’s about staying sharp all day long — and letting the landscape write the plan.
