Thanks Rob. I have a feeling someone will take this deer out illegally prior to the opener. If we could get a little more rain the beans will grow just a little more and they will be shielded from passing traffic. It's in a very strange area, the town hall's parking lot goes directly into the bean field.

Sounding like PA. [&:]

Remember, take lots and lots of photos. :D

I wanna come too!! please please!! :D

I've got video footage of him just gotta get a guy at work to put it into a usuable format to up load to photobucket and share with the HNI community.

Aaron your more than welcome, just let me know when you will be near my area. Best time to be there is 8:15 until dark. Tonight he was roaming all over the field by dark he was about 90 yards out with about 17 does and three GIANT bucks.

pm when jeff is coming, I'll try to make it then too. Im free monday and tuesday as of right now.

Will do. Just let me know when you guys wanna come. I may never see him again but he's been a regular for a week now.

The deer should stay on the beans until they turn brown. Good luck on getting him cant wait to see pictures.

I've got an solid white albino 8 pointer that I've watched come out with three P&Y bucks every night for the last 5 nights to eat in a bean field. Now this bean field is in a very populated area and everybody and there brother knows about him and has been watching him from the town hall parking lot. I've got permission to hunt him, but I've got a few questions.

1. How long will they stay on the beans?
2. When will they split from the bachelor groups?
3. What's the likely hood this deer will make until I can legally have a chance to take him?

Did I mention there is a 10 pointer that will go at least 21" wide? I'm setting 2 trail cameras tommorrow and pulling them next saturday. I'll post pics.

He's solid white except for his antlers. Zero brown, he looks like a piece of cotton walking through the field. What sucks the most is he sticks out like a sore thumb from several hundred yards away.

Well, if he's that good of a deer, and ain't been killed YET, I don't think you have to be fretting ("What sucks is......"), because he didn't get that big being stupid, and LOADS of guys would kill him even as a yearling because he is a different color phase!!!!

Good luck on him, have you noticed whether or not his eyes are "Red/Pink" or not??? That's usually the determining factor of PURE albinism I thought.

OH~
I can't see his eyes through the binos. I've used my nikon's and my father's Leica's and for the life of me I can't tell what color his eyes are. I did notice last night that it "looks" like maybe he has a brown patch on his head between his horns, but I'm very very not sure. From his nose to tail and down to his feet he's solid white. I'm headin over at lunch to make sure they are bedded down and puttin some black magic out in front of one cam and some corn out in front of the other cam. Keep and eye on the boards next Sat. when I pull the cams. Then you tell me what he is.
