For over three decades, Muy Grande Outfitters has been the premier spot for wingshooters from all over the world. Tucked away in Hermosillo, Sonora just south of Arizona, this outfit’s deep local roots and deep commitment to quality and safety make it the ideal choice for hunters looking for action-packed bird hunting in Mexico’s beautiful and rugged terrain.
While Muy Grande is known for trophy mule deer hunts, their wingshooting is truly world-class. Specializing in dove hunting, they offer three and four-night packages hunting mourning, white-winged, and Eurasian doves. Muy Grande has access to Sonora’s best hunting ground and an amazing team of professionals, so it’s no surprise that their wingshooting has been so popular.
Upon your arrival, your team meets you at the airport and takes you directly to the lodge where a traditional Mexican lunch will be waiting for you. After you get settled in, you’ll head out for the afternoon hunt. In the field, you’re paired with a “bird boy” who keeps you stocked with ammo and retrieves your birds. The day caps off with another fantastic meal.
The upcoming days follow a similar rhythm. You’ll eat a hearty breakfast and then head out on the morning hunt. After a few hours in the field, you’ll head back to the lodge to rest up during lunch, before heading back out on the afternoon hunt. Muy Grande’s pros handle all of the logistics so you can focus solely on the hunt.
Mexico offers some unique advantages compared to other wingshooting destinations. For one, it’s incredibly accessible. If you’re flying from California, for example, you could leave in the morning and arrive in Mexico and be ready to hunt by noon. It’s a quick flight and easy entry compared to places like Argentina.
Mexico offers an exceptional hunting experience that stands up to those of Argentina. Hunters enjoy a fast-paced and exhilarating adventure. Muy Grande’s meticulously managed properties ensure abundant opportunities to bag your fill of birds, delivering a top-tier, dynamic hunt that meets the highest expectations.
If you want to mix it up, Muy Grande offers the option to add waterfowl hunts to your trip. Depending on rainfall and water levels, you might encounter teal, pintails, mallards, and even the elusive Mexican black duck. It’s a mixed bag of fun, with the exact species varying by season and conditions.
If you’re after something truly special, ask about adding quail or Pacific black brant hunts to your trip. Quail hunting is done on foot, tracking and flushing birds, while brant hunting takes place on the water. Both hunts depend on the season and weather, so it’s worth checking ahead to see what’s available during your stay.
Your home base is Muy Grande’s dedicated 12-room lodge. It’s a sweet setup with showers, a private chef, and an open bar. It’s the same spot used for big game hunts but primarily reserved for bird hunters. Comfortable and well-equipped, it’s just a 15-minute drive from the airport. It’s the perfect place for unwinding after a long day of hunting.
Muy Grande takes safety very seriously. Despite what you might hear in the news about Mexico, hunting with Muy Grande is as safe as hunting anywhere else. Their intimate knowledge of the region ensures all hunts take place in secure areas, and they handle everything from airport pickup to hunting licenses and shotgun permits. You should bring your own shotgun, but if you can’t, they have loaners on hand.
Muy Grande Outfitters has mastered the art of delivering top-notch, exciting hunts in Mexico, and their wingshooting packages are no exception. Whether you’re chasing doves, adding a waterfowl hunt, or pursuing the elusive Pacific brant, Muy Grande serves up an unforgettable experience with all the trimmings.
For hunters seeking a quick getaway with great wingshooting and first-rate lodging, Muy Grande Outfitters fits the bill perfectly. Reach out to WTA today to book your next wingshooting adventure in Mexico!
