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.

Our hunt was excellent.
We saw bucks every day along with all other sorts of wildlife. Mountain goats, bears, and foxes were common sights. Fishing and crabbing was special bonus. The food was excellent, the crew was amazing. Outdoors International did a great job of finding exactly what we were looking for.

What an amazing experience!
The hunting lodge was out of this world!, Rooms, food and the scenery were all A+. Our guide was exceptional and had us on Shiras moose all five days. We saw over 30 total with at least 10 bulls. They had a plan for everything including taxidermy and game processing.
