The Diamond TF Ranch in Sonora, Texas is swinging open it’s gates to offer trophy axis hunts to the public for the first time this Spring! Family owned since 1885, the ranch has long been home to some great whitetail hunting, but several years ago a small group of axis deer showed up and the rest, as they say, is history.

This 1,900 acre, low-fenced ranch, is home to a large and ever-growing herd of free ranging axis deer that seem to find the large irrigated fields and brushy draws of the Diamond TF irresistible.
“We have a great combination of food, water and available cover that seem to keep them here year after year” - Tryon Fields, Diamond TF
Couple that with extremely low hunting pressure from a only a select few of whitetail hunters each season and you have all the makings of a true axis deer mecca.
As AAE staff members, we have hunted on the Diamond TF for the past 2 years and the axis never cease to amaze. The shear number of bucks has to be the most impressive aspect of this axis herd. The buck to doe ratio is an amazing 3:1…if not better. — Craig Ellwanger, AAE

Whether you’re hunting with rifle or bow…hunting true, free range axis deer is a challenge that any hunter should experience atleast once.
Booking has just begun and openings are limited for the 2010 season, so call today to be one of the first to take a ‘crack’ at trophy axis.
