Well, lefties are stupid enough to do dumb shit like capture deer in a small area and sterilize them for a few thousand dollars each, then wonder why the deer population isn't going down... so who knows what the fuck they want. Quoted:
My buddy shot an albino doe a few years ago. There is a rumer of bad luck shooting an albino, that it will be your last deer you ever kill. A $1000 pickup and some spare time in the evening on some country roads can break that streak pretty quick.

Quote HistoryQuoted: It's illegal to shoot one in WI, but if it were legal, I'd shoot one. It's going to die anyways, so it might as well hang on my wall or stand in a full mount.  I know a place that raises white deer, but I don't think they are true albinos. http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y183/DamageIncorporated/20140304_164018_zpsb6ab6210.jpg There is no good reason, and certainly no biological reason to not allow shooting of albinos. I think it is weird that some states have those laws. |

No shit, most "archery" hunters here [and black powder] have more sunk into all their fancy shit then most gun hunters. Personally, I don't believe there should be separate seasons, run what you brung thru whatever season times they decide on. |

When anti's get your money.
http://legalinsurrection.com/2014/10/cornell-gives-deer-tubal-ligations-everything-goes-wrong/ Cornell gives deer tubal ligations, everything goes wrong As far as I know, no plans were made to control the faculty population. I was not aware that Cornell had its own sterilization program. I was aware that deer are all over campus. The Cornell sterilization program combined on-campus sterilization with off-campus/regional hunting. What possibly could go wrong? As the Washington Post reports (via Ithaca Voice), just about everything, Trying to limit the number of deer, with surprising results: A few years ago, the central campus of Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y., was facing a problem familiar to the Washington area. An infestation of white-tailed deer had pushed the community to the limits of its tolerance. Without natural predators, the deer reproduced until their numbers were limited only by the availability of food…. Typically, a deer boom is dealt with through hunting. Often, sharpshooting riflemen or archers are brought in to bait the animals into zones where shots can safely be taken. Cornell’s administrators took a different approach: They chose to experiment with sterilizing many of the wild deer on campus while allowing periodic hunting on nearby land — and the result was something that nobody anticipated. Let’s stop right there. Basically, if you were a deer on campus, you got so much free birth control it would make Sandra Fluke jealous; if you were a deer off campus, you got served for dinner. Rest of hilarity at link |

Yup , I used a bow for years out of neccesity , personally I dont give two shits about being a proper "archer" , I want to hunt and I want to kill efficiently , the crossbow lets me do that ! BTW , all things being equal a crossbow bolt being lighter and shorter carries less kinetic energy than that of an arrow from a compound bow of comparable velocity therefore having less effective range , the bolt drops and loses velocity quicker than the arrow! |

A hunter here shot an albino moose last year and on the way home (with the moose in the truck) was filed filling up his gas at an Indian gas station. They had no problem with it UNTIL White People told them that it was supposed to be sacred ... then the political correctness machine swung into motion and they were demanding to bless it and all kinds of other nonsense

Personally, I would have passed on shooting an albino deer if it were on my land, but not because I think it's somehow bad or unethical. I just think it would be cool to see it (alive) from time to time. With that said, I have nothing against the kid taking the deer. Good shoot, enjoy your 15 minutes.
