Booking a Guide
If you’re interested in hunting an Axis deer at 777 Ranch, the first thing you need to do is book one of our hunting guides. The starting rate for a hunting guide for a single hunter is $400 per day, which includes all the additional amenities you need to feel comfortable and enjoy your hunt at the ranch. This includes meals, lodging and your hunting guide, as well as pickup from Hondo Airport.
We recommend a 4-day/3-night trip minimum if you’re planning on going on an exotic hunt at 777 Ranch. This is to ensure you get the full hunting experience and get an opportunity to take down the exotic animal you want to hunt.
Axis Deer Trophy Fee
As is often the case with exotic animal hunts, you’ll have to pay a flat trophy fee when you hunt an axis Deer at 777 Ranch. This trophy fee is $3,000 for a buck and $500 for a doe. Keep in mind that the trophy fee doesn’t include the cost of booking a guide and paying for the animal to be processed after the hunt. It’s also important to note that a wounded animal is charged the same as a kill, so your trophy fee is due upon shooting the deer.
Axis Deer Processing
One important thing to remember when you hunt for Axis deer at 777 Ranch is that caping/skinning, processing of meet, shipping and taxidermy fees aren’t included in the daily trophy fee or hunting guide fee that you’re paying. If you need any of these services, you’ll have to pay additional fees to get them.
