My old man would ask me "What do you think they're gonna do, go inside? that's what they live in get out there and hunt" It has allowed me to kill a couple critters hearing that advice.

I’ll second what Shane said, plus:
Get out very early in the morning and carefully move in close to a roaring buck with the breeze in your face. Pay attention to the direction he may be moving in. Beware of getting busted by other deer. If you work it right and get lucky you could get your shot at first light or shortly after. When slipping around for a shot choose thicker areas and move as slowly as possible. You gotta see em before they see you and there’s usually many eyes watching. If you can catch a buck alone he’s in trouble. They’re gonna want to drink every morning and afternoon. I recently found the best times to be from daylight to mid morning, and then from 5 or 6 on til dark with about 6:30 pm being very busy at the waterholes. I hunt hard from before daylight until it gets very hot, then I go in and siesta until about 4 pm when I hit em again until dark. They can be called if you know how but if you’re not well practiced at it you’ll do more harm than good.
I’ve hunted them a good bit in every season and in my opinion the month of June is hands down the hottest time to be out after them.
Good Luck and tell Larry hello from us TBH’ers. He’s got a many a fan here!
I’ve spent a lot of time with these

Can you ask Larry if his heritage lineage is traced back to the South Pacific? I have never heard of that name pronounced the way he does. I know 2 Shuns and never heard of a Soon like Monsoon. Red headed step child Andy Dalton could knock some since into him. So tired of monsoon pulling the pistola like he is some stud

I think that Larry is going to bring a cameraman and if he does, I am sure that he will air on his show, TRAILING THE HUNTER'S MOON. I am not sure if I will air on my show, CARNIVORE, as CARNIVORE is all predator and hog hunting. The main reason that I am bringing Steve is in the event we find any predators or hogs. We will video the axis hunt and see if TTHA or someone else wants it.
Adios,
Gary

Originally posted by Gary Roberson View PostNext Tuesday I am supposed to meet up with two gents from Ruger and my Buddy, Larry Weishuhn to hunt Axis between Garven Store and Rocksprings. I checked the weather and they are predicting 102-105 degrees while we are there. We will be hunting with Ruger Redhawks in .44 Mag tipped off with Trijicon RMR sights. I will be shooting Hornady 240 grain XTP ammo.
Believe it or not, I have never killed an axis buck, only does for meat...this will be something new and different for me. I hope that the excessive heat does not slow them from moving as I plan to do some calling, rattling and when all else fails, spot and stalk to the roaring bucks.
Adios,
Gary
Think watering holes and you will be fine
