Axis Deer Hunting Guides and Outfitters

Like whitetails, axis deer are very wary, jumpy animals…and they’re tough to hunt. In the United States (mostly Texas and Hawaii), axis deer are considered exotic game animals, so regulations are loose, or even non-existent, and the season never closes. Since they rut year-round, you don’t have to worry about when you hunt them, making them the perfect off season animal to hunt. Most axis deer hunting takes place right after turkey hunting season.

Axis Deer Hunting in Hawaii

The captivating tale of Axis Deer begins in 1867 when they were introduced to Hawaii as a gift for King Kamehameha. These magnificent creatures boast striking trophy mounts, showcasing their average 30-inch antlers that can reach an impressive 38 inches in main beam length. Join our thrilling axis deer hunts on Lanai, Molokai or Maui, where you will encounter exceptional trophy deer within Hawaii's prime habitat. Prepare to be amazed by the keen senses of these free-range axis deer, and keep an eye out for the highly sought-after mature bucks. With a remarkable track record, our outfitter has achieved a 98% harvest rate and provided 100% opportunity on trophy axis deer hunts over the past two decades.

Axis deer meat is renowned among hunters and is considered by most as the best wild game.

Axis deer meat is lean and a dark, deep red color, and those people who have tasted it, rave about it! In fact, it is so good that Outdoors International owner Russ Meyer and his good friend Travis Browne recently hunted them for the meat that was served at Travis Browne and Ronda Rousey’s wedding in Hawaii.

I didn't think an experience like this was possible.

This trip, was, for me at least not just a trip, for me it was a real adventure, a real experience. I love the wilderness and this trip afforded me the opportunity to connect with the Alaskan wilderness in ways very few people do. It was an experience I will never forgot in a place I can’t wait to get back to.

The outfitter handled everything perfectly.

We were thankful that Outdoors International hooked us up with a great outfitter because they were able to find us an acceptable alternate on short notice. Overall the two year process to get this float in was seamless and worry free. Just like it should be.

Thank you,

What an amazing experience!

The lodge was out of this world! Our rooms, the delicious food, the incredible wildlife and the scenery were amazing. Our photo safari guide was truly exceptional and had us on animals almost constantly. We saw over 30 different species and had some incredible up close experiences. Africa is amazing!
