RE: axis deer in hawaii
I asked for, and recieved similar advice last month. What I got from here, and a few local contacts..Axis deer are very spooky. Drives in the thickest stuff you can find or long (200-300yd)shots are productive. Sunrise near watering areas has worked well for some guys. BTW...Maui removed limits on numbers, sex and size from deer in public hunting areas. The deer have really messed up some areas and are starting to desecrate some of the holiest of holy property...golf courses. Try to get permission to hunt on private land, if possible. I'm working on putting together a similar hunt there too. Good luck.
