Nice bucks. This two hunter thing is a new one on me! Never ran into that, but it has been more than 10 years since I hunted axis. Time slips by. May try this soon. Thanks for the info. On the Baker ranch! Good luck on your trip ingwe!!

On the Baker ranch! Good luck on your trip ingwe!! It's really more of a woman thing that a 2 hunter thing. I didn't explain it very well. It's harder to find separate sleeping arrangements for a couple vs a group of men!

Ok. If we went, we would probably take the travel trailer,so we would have our own sleeping quarters. Looks like a fine spot for axis..

Im heading south on May 9th! Will be meeting another 24HCF member for an Axis hunt. Looking forward to it big time! I don't know if I'll ever shoot and eat another mule deer or whitetail, Axis are THAT good. Fun to hunt too! Will post pics upon my return. Just got my hides back from last year, so I had to take a pic you may as well just move to Texas!

Johnny you NEED to do this...living as close as you do...it would be a bit of an eye opener for a deer hunter such as yourself... And Ingwewife is loving the spotted hides...I have orders for two more!
