The Sullivan Exotic Hunting Ranch offers Texas Axis Deer Hunts. Our axis deer hunting property spans across five hundred acres, offering a remarkable axis deer hunting experience for enthusiasts of archery, muzzleloader, and rifle hunting. The axis deer hunting season commences on the first Saturday in October and extends through the first Saturday in November. While archery hunting is accessible throughout this period, rifle hunting exclusively begins in November, providing an excellent opportunity for those seeking to axis deer hunt during the preceding October month. For rifle hunters looking to secure an early-season harvest before the rut, Raven crossbows are available for use.
Our expansive axis deer hunting property encompasses open alfalfa fields, narrow meadows, and strategically positioned bow hunting blinds overlooking corn feeders. Archery shots are commonly taken at around thirty yards, with most corn feeders thoughtfully placed for optimal engagement. Rifle shots are typically taken from distances of up to 250 yards, aligning with the standard practice of zeroing rifles at approximately two hundred yards. For those drawn to a challenge and the possibility of encountering a majestic trophy axis deer, the alfalfa field offers shooting opportunities stretching from 400 to 500 yards.
A diverse array of food sources is readily available, including alfalfa fields, protein feeders, corn feeders, and cotton seeds; ensuring a consistent and nutritious diet for the axis deer population. Sullivan Exotic Hunting Ranch axis deer hunts cater to various preferences, featuring ground blinds designed for individuals with mobility challenges, bow hunting blinds, and 10-foot tower hunting blinds equipped with expansive windows, ideal for both archery and rifle hunting enthusiasts. During colder months, heaters ensure a comfortable and extended axis deer hunting experience, while fans provide respite during warmer periods.

The freedom to embark on your axis deer hunting adventure at your preferred time allows you to structure your morning according to your preferences. Guided by our experienced experts, you will be transported to your axis deer hunting stand before daybreak in a convenient side-by-side vehicle. Once dropped off, your hunting guide will return to lead you on a remarkable axis deer hunting expedition.
If we spot axis deer in the distance, depending on the locations of other hunters on the ranch, we do have the capability of dropping out of the hunting stand and making a play on them with spot and stalk tactics; but only if you are comfortable with a harvest off of a shooting stick and plenty of walking will probably be involved. Axis deer have incredibly good sight, hearing, and sense of smell, so a spot and stalk hunt is not easily accomplished, but one of the more rewarding methods to go after a trophy axis deer. Axis deer hunting times typically extend until 8:30 to 9:00 AM, with the option to extend it based on your preferences and weather conditions. Your guide will also assist in retrieving harvested game and capturing captivating field photographs.
