Been showing up everyday for a few days in a row now.

I’ve got 20 vacation days left and my time resets June 1st.

You should work. Economic input is needed right now more than ever in this country. Save hunting for when you are done contributing to our great nation.

So there's 39 working days between now and June 1st--and you have 20days to burn? I'd say burn 4-5 and go kill him.

Real question is if the 20 days roll over to the next year--if so--make a quick trip out of it (4-5 days) leaving 15 to roll over until next year. If they do not roll--burn all 20 days and hunt him till he's dead.

I've never understood the letting PTO days roll off a calendar. The companys i have worked for actively want us to take those days and frankly prioritize it. Obviously not sure the circumstances with your work, but go kill him.

You should work more to afford a better camera.

That’s a reveal X Pro 2.0. That pic is from the app in my phone and zoomed in. I run 12 of the 2.0 and 3.0’s and they take pretty good pics. I’m too far in now to switch with 12 solar panels and 12 battery packs to switch. Got 2 Stealthcams that I will be switching out once they shite out.

I’ve actually got 22 days left and can roll over 7 and get another 25 to 26 days come June 1. Normally I use all but the 7 days and roll that to the following year but got busy this year and didn’t take as much.

Looks like he's about to go back in the cage. Just release him again on a day you have off from work.

And Axis don’t all drop at the same time like whitetail.

I’ve got a few appointments in the am then heading that way. Will try and do a live hunt since I will be by myself there for a few days.

I’m not sure where this guy is hunting, but you do realize they have a ton of free range Axis in Texas?
