Question Cyclic clicking noise: front axel or what?

So I'm getting this clicking or tapping sound coming from the front of the car, probably the passenger side. It's cyclic and starts out slow when I'm starting from a stop, and by the time I reach 20 MPH it's fast and steady: click-click-click-click... (It remains as I go faster and is pretty loud.) But when I take my foot off the gas, it goes away. The only time I hear it when not giving it gas is when the car is very slow when coming to a stop, and of course it is a slow noise then. Does this indicate the half shaft axel on that side has gone bad? If not, what is it?
