Tarantula en Misiones

Sorry, it´s that English bloke again asking for more help with identification

I found this tarantula in the garden of the hotel I was staying in. Under a paving slab was a large hole. Tickling the ground in front of the hole with a stick prompted this huge handsome tarantula to pop out and say hello

Hours of googling hasn´t produced much luck. So I thought I´d call on the informed collective mind of foto-naturaleza to identify the species

Thanks in advance

edited to add: I think it´s most likely to be of the genus Grammostola ( http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grammostola )

Also edited to add: These fellows are not dangerous (despite the hollywood demonisation in the movies) a bite from a tarantula is very similar to a sting from a bee. So if you see one in your garden, just say hello and thank him for catching the bugs that are destroying your veg patch.
