apoallo Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 I would love to have an albino deer shoulder mount on my wall!!! great pic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HuntOrBeHunted Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Previous comment was a joke ( Obviously )... That pic is very cool. I assume you wouldn't be allowed to harvest the albino deer?? The regular buck looks a little confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNYBuckHunter Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 That pic is very cool. I assume you wouldn't be allowed to harvest the albino deer?? Depends on the state. Some you can, others you cant. In NY, they are fair game. Id drop one in a heartbeat, and we do have them in the general area from time to time.

Paulie Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I would drop that in a heartbeat as well....but has anyone heard the old tale that it is bad luck?? What do you think about that? Had a nice pieball a few years back that I was leary about shooting because I heard it was bad luck....lucky for me it came in before legal shooting time and was out of range when "sunrise" hit.....a few minutes later and I would have really been torn!!

wooly Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I would drop that in a heartbeat as well....but has anyone heard the old tale that it is bad luck?? It's only bad luck if you walk under your ladder stand first...or if you see a black cat....or if you break a mirror before the hunt! Cool buck and pic!

Culvercreek hunt club Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Anyone know about where it was taken? We do have white deer in NY that are NOT Albino. I would hav to lower the boom on one if I had the chance too. If any of you are aout around the old Seneca Army Depot you can see white deer there. Best time of year is early spring right after the snow goes and before the leaves come out. They are cool to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StripedBuck Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Great picture!...Wouldn't mind seeing one of those albino deer in the woods though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accman Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Saw a white doe last year during the rut. She came from a long way away, running around, and I, at first, thought it was a horse. Then, when she got close, she had a little brown on her back, only just a little, not a pure albino. She was being chased around by every buck in the area like she was the queen of the crop. I hunt close to a lot of houses and the people there are probably feeding deer and everything. They had to have seen her and all claim her as a pet. A couple of bucks were fighting it out about 50 yards away and all the does were standing around watching em. She walked right up to my tent. I dropped down, watched her image through the tent wall, and if she peeked in, I was gonna give her an uppercut. She just kept on going and walked off with the rest of the does. I've hunted for 45 years, never shot a doe cause at our gun club they don't allow it. Therefore, I never had the urge when I took up bow hunting 8 years ago. Scout: "Atikus, it would be sort of like killing a mockingbird, woodn't it ?" Best thing is I got to see her. Hopefully, she's got some fawns, and we'll see if she's still around.

phade Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 No second thoughts on lowering the boom. Fully body mount. Don't care if I have to sleep in the doghouse forever. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Photo is from WI where in most of the state they are illegal to shoot. This company posted the picture originally on it's website.picture is from Wisconsin.

verminater71 Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 here is a local almost shot a doe 2 years ago...lost her in the snow...never seen her again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WNYBuckHunter Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 True albinos are pretty rare, most of what you see are white deer. They have black noses, hooves, and normal eyes. A true albino has pink nose, red eyes and pink hooves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted October 28, 2012 Share Posted October 28, 2012 We do have a fairly large herd of white deer mixed in with a normal pigmented bunch of deer over at the old Seneca Army Depot. They are not albinos, but simply deer where the recessive white pigmentation genetics took over. I would guess that piebald deer are some other version of that. Interesting to look at. They look kind of like a domestic goat .... lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
