central ala,
Of course its not hard to get a good look when he's mounted on the wall. I've just never seen one and the rareness of these whitetails had me in aw. Small 6pt. Think it was killed in Texas. I might or might not shoot an albino but these deer would be hard to pass up. Beautifully odd.

parts of central Texas have fairly good populations of black phase deer.


I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

Excuse my poor wording but I think he said mellanistic and no more the a half dozen killed in the whole US in most years. I have seen an article or two on them but don't remember what was said so I'm relying on someone else.

Melanistic is the correct wording, and I doubt that many are killed in any year. They are found on private landholdings near Austin for the most part and are protected by the individual landowners.

central ala,
Yea, I go in Pickers some. Some neat antique stuff.

As I said, I've seen a few articles about them but in person is different. No white throat patch, no white around eyes, and no white inside ears. Just all black. Strange and any oddity like that in wildlife intrigues me.
