Awesome Denny! What's next? Are you going for the rodent grand slam? Nutria, beaver, muskrat, squirrel? I've actually heard that capybara are decent table fare.

Hey, Denny! Good to see you're in Argentina now. I hope you bag a water buffalo and take it on video. Where exactly are you? Buenos Aires, La Pampa, Santa Fe or another province?

Nice rodent!  Those things can go bigger than my last deer! So where's the rest of the story??

Thanks everyone. We didn't get a chance to eat any of the meat, but the locals said it wasn't bad and would be put to good use. The hunt was short to begin with and cut even shorter by flight delays. I hope to return for a longer stay someday.

We landed in Buenos Aires and drove around 6 hours to reach the hunting area. That's all I know. Everything was in Spanish and didn't have a map. I guess I'm kind of a loser. LOL  :)

Ha!  Sounds like my trip to Dallas last weekend!

Great harvest, by the way!  I love hunting critters that don't get a lot of publicity!
