Default Would you shoot an albino deer?

This is a followup to another post....

If it was legal, would you shoot an albino or all white deer?

If your answer is no, how would you feel about another hunter legally shooting it?

Yes I would.
How many opportunities would you have to take a truly unique deer?
Yes they are beautiful in the woods, but you have yourself a very unique situation that most hunters (in my neck of the woods) will never have.

Would you take a 1 1/2 year old 300" buck? Same thing, a very unique opportunity.

Sure would, that's the easy part. The hard part is trying to convince my wife that its necessary to spend the money to have a full body mount done on it.

My grandfather claims if you do shoot an albino, your looking at 7 years of bad luck. I'd still take the shot!!

I'm with furgitter...anyone who disagrees with me is an idiot.[:@]

And any uniqueor beautiful animal should not be killed...only the regular deer should be killed, because they are not beautiful.[:@]

I have been seeking a piebald or albino deer for my whole hunting life. That would be a very nice trophyIMO. I have seen quite a few piebalds but never got a open bow shot.

"If" it was legal you bet I'd pull the trigger.

Default RE: Would you shoot an albino deer?

I sure would. Saw one during turkey season this year, couldnt tell if it was albino or piebald as it was off in the distance, but there was ALOT of white. I don't have permission to hunt deer on that property, yet. I was sensing that I might be able to hunt archery there, but the owner is a deer hunter too and I will have to approach him on it. He lets me hunt turkey there though, which is pretty cool.
