    I've already killed a piebald buck and passed on at least two white does.

    Honestly, shooting that yearling piebald did nothing for me. I dunno, maybe I'm just not enamored with albinism, but if given the opportunity again, I'd never even consider taking the bow off the hook.

    I did have a near-miss about 6 years back with great 4x4 with some mild piebald markings. I tried to take the shot, but it had nothing to do with the hide. He was a buck that I'd have shot whether he was brown, black or white. LOL

    200+ all day. I'd take a 110" over a white doe. Hell, I'd take a brown doe over a white one.

    200" buck hands down. I have seen more albinos from my area than Booners. The albino would be cool for awhile but i think i would not oogle over it as i would a 200" booner hanging on the wall. just me!!!!!! If an albino walks up, i just hope its a Doe and not a spike :rolleyes: since i only get one buck tag!! :D

    I can't even believe this is a real question :confused:.... a 200" buck is more rare than a white doe .... the 200" buck would get the arrow EVERY time for me

    The more i think about it, i think of how RARE any odd colored whitetail is in my area (pie-bald, albino, melanistic)...i have never heard of any, not a single one.

    I have 7 seasons of trail cam use to help project that point as well..

    Now 200" bucks? Their has been a handful in the 170-180" range that i know of for sure, and probably a 200" in there somewhere...

    With all that said, id still take the booner :D

    I'd take a 140 buck over an albino. I think they would be cool, but show me the antlers!

    Id take the buck. I just dont have this big thing for shooting an Albino, Ive seen both albino bucks and does and a few piebalds, and to be honest I would rather watch them then I would ever shoot them. Now, a 200" buck I would drop the hammer on right away, but id settle for a one over 100" right now.
