Shotgun Life Publisher, Irwin Greenstein and friend Rick Cundiff head out to the Cordoba region of Argentina for high-volume dove hunting. In Part I of the series “Dove Hunting in Argentina Beretta Style,” they embark for two destinations that are affiliates of the Beretta Trident Program: the Sierra Brava Lodge followed by a hunt at Estancia Los Chañares. Irwin tries to buck conventional wisdom about using a sub-gauge in Argentina to reduce recoil fatigue. Instead, he packs two Beretta 12 gauges equipped with the company’s Kick-Off recoil-reduction system to see if they really work on extreme bird shooting.

Shotgun Life now hosts a single site for all of the Beretta Trident Program experiences. In one place you can find information on the affiliate destinations that provide the best in wing shooting, clays shooting and big-game hunting around the world.
The Beretta Trident Program is the first and only system to rate shooting sports venues. Not an endorsement for purchase, “Tridents” are awarded for excellence – like Michelin® stars are for restaurants.
While emphasizing the outstanding hunting or shooting experience, the evaluation system recognizes and rates everything from the food on the table to the kennels for the dogs. A Beretta Trident venue represents the best of the best, with only 5% of destinations worldwide considered good enough to merit even one Trident.

Nick Sisley provides an up-close and personal review of Browning’s latest shotguns from the proving grounds of Argentina. The new A5 marks the return of the legendary semi-auto that had an incredible run from 1936 to 2000. While the 725 may sound like an incremental improvement to the famed Citori line, Browning added some important upgrades. Get the details on Shotgun Life at www.shotgunlife.com.

Pikesville, Maryland – August 1, 2011 – SYC Sporting, a leading destination for
high-volume wingshooting in Argentina, launched a video advertising campaign on
Shotgun Life that features shotgunning superstars, Tom Knapp and Colorado Buck.
SYC’s new campaign continues its momentum as a leading
wingshooting destination in Argentina by attracting greats such as Gil &
Vicki Ash, Anthony Matarese, Jr., Dez Young, Bruce Scott, Marty Fischer,
Elizabeth Lanier, Judy Rhodes, Bill Kempfer and other leaders in the shotgun
sports. SYC Sporting is located on the Internet at http://www.sycsporting.com/.
The SYC video advertising campaign leverages Shotgun Life’s
position as a technology leader in online publishing in the luxury shotgunning
segment. Shotgun Life is the first online magazine dedicated to the best in
wing and clays shooting. Between the online magazine and the Shotgun Life
e-letters that are read by some 600 affluent shooters daily, Shotgun Life reaches
approximately 1,000 people every day – perhaps the most widely read publication
of its kind. You can see Shotgun Life at http://www.shotgunlife.com/.
“SYC has been engaged in a high-touch marketing campaign by making
appearances at the top shotgun shows,” said Irwin Greenstein, Publisher of
Shotgun Life. “Their streaming video campaign is a case study that a successful
company in this industry must rely on multiple advertising platforms to expand
and maintain their success.”
“Many hunters have yet to realize that Argentina is not only
affordable in today’s economy, it is actually a true ‘value’ – world-class shooting,
lodging, food and wines,” said John Wiles, American Partner at SYC Sporting. “For
the shotgun shooter, it just doesn’t get any better than this.”
Video advertising is growing faster than all other online ad
formats, according to, eMarketer. The market research firm estimates online
video advertising revenues will grow in 2011 to 52.1% to $2.16 billion, up from
$1.42 billion last year, when the video ad market grew 39.6%.
