    [​IMG] I had posted this little 4 pt white buck came by me at 15 yards last Sunday morning, today I did a card pull and got him at different areas of my parcel, I didn't know if I could harvest him but I found out you can, I don't know what I will do now. Scoot

    The third picture is maybe the single best picture I have seen on this web site for uniqueness and quality combined.

    Very cool photos. I would shoot it just for the uniqueness but I thought the white deer are protected in Wisconsin.

    PastorJim, I thought so to but I am in the CWD zone so they are not protected in these zones, my boss told me to take some time off work because he thought I was nuts, good thing for pics.:p Scoot

    That's freaking awesome. I don't know what I would do, he could grow into a giant but you also may never see him again if you got a shot. For the last reason. I probably take the shot if given one.

    Don't know about killing him... It's illegal to kill them in OK. At the very least I would contact your state wildlife department and get in contact with their big game biologist. I'm certain they would love to see the awesome pix!

    I don't know what I would do??? I probably would let him walk and see what he is next year. Well maybe I would shoot him. Haha

    I would shoot and get the hide done. Not too many people could say they have taken an animal like this.

    man a cool picture!

    Hard choice......, ya ideally part of you wants to let it go and let it grow, but not sure on your area and more then likely would end up dead on the neighbors.

    It would be cool to let him get some age, but since he just showed up and no one around there has reported seeing him on any other farms, it makes you wonder where he came from and if he'd stay around? I'd of probably taken the shot, and have a full mount done, for an unuseual trophy for anyones man cave since your in the CWD unit that allows them to be shot. Good luck at what ever you deside to do.

    I wouldn't shoot for one reason, I already have taken a albino buck. He was a yearling and I had the hide tanned. One is enough for me.
