Eight years ago, I took a really nice Axis deer in Texas. I had it officially scored and entered into the Safari Club International record book. At that time, it ranked #26 in the Axis free range with rifle category. It scored 150 1/4.

Since then, I have not renewed my membership, and the only way to see the record book is to be a member.

I would like to know where my Axis ranks now, but I don't want to pay the $65 membership fee just to see where I rank.

Is anyone here a member who would be willing to look up where my deer is ranked now?

Thanks,
Nick

Sorry, I dropped my SCI membership and went with DSC.

PM me. I have a bud who's active with SCI. I'm supposed to hunt Ibex in Spain with him next May, but suspect Covid will delay it again.

Hmmmmm. Had to look that one up. Never heard them called Axis Deer before and I live in Texas. :ashamed: We just call them Spotted Deer or just deer. :cool: There's been a buck frequenting my front yard the last few days. I think he's been following the doe that was here last week eating bird seed. (There's cracked corn mixed in the bird seed.) Saw a fawn "napping" on the berm down the road. I don't know if that's connected but suspect the doe may be ready for a new mate.

And no, I didn't think about the rifle. The only thing I shoot around here is rattlers and hogs. ;)

I used to be a member too, but the magazine really started to slip and when it was time to renew, I realized that I hadn't even read the last couple issues. For years, that was my favorite magazine!!! When I lived in CA, I went to every Convention in Reno, and one in Vegas. They where awesome, but now that I'm here in Texas, I go to Dallas most years to the Dallas Safari Club Convention, which is almost as good, but significantly cheaper and closer.

You might have more luck if you ask this question at Forum list | AfricaHunting.com or https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/forum_summary

Love to see a picture!!!

Here is mine. I didn't have it scored. I think it was something like 34 inches long. I shot it on a high fence ranch near Johnson City back in the 90s that was owned by a guy with the last name of Schneider. I forgot his first name or the name of his ranch.

I had it done in a full mount, and for fun one day, I put it out in a field and took a picture of it.

Thanks to a member here, I just got word that I am now at #72. This means that 46 Axis deer that scored better than mine have been registered with SCI in the past 8 years.

That's a lot of nice deer!

Maybe next year I'll get a bigger one!
