That is the largest Axis I've ever seen.

Yea I killed the Muley north of Chimney Rock.
I've shown the Axis photo to several guys who have raised, hunted and been around the Axis deer for over 30 years and they all agree that he would very likely be the world record. Most experienced guys age him at 14+ years plus old. He's almost totally white in the face. I took the photo in September 2013 so who knows if he's still alive. I feel blessed to have some photos of him as well as seeing him relaxed in his environment. Even if I was several hundred yards away. Baker

My best friend, Owen Murnion holding a buck I shot back in 2009. We were actually looking for another buck I'd seen the year before when we bumped into this one. Owen really liked the looks of him. I said, "If you like him so much, go ahead and take him." He then told me he forgot his buck tag at home that morning. I said, we can come back and look for him in the morning, he might still be around. He thought that was a bad idea, and told me I'd better shoot him, and I did. He turns out to be much larger than I thought....Owen knew he was a keeper, and that's why he insisted I shoot him. That's the kind of guy Owen was. Just one week ago today, Owen was killed in a farm accident near his home in Jordan, Montana. Gonna miss you pardner......but I won't forget all the good times we shared. Sorry to hear that about your friend. May y'all meet up again in the happy hunting ground. He was right. That buck was a high scorer. I wish you would tell us how high.

Nice buck. Once the spread gets outside the ears, one has some substance there.

This is not a mule deer, it's a Columbian Blacktail. I got him in the early 80s. [/URL]
