Yeah, so nice of the writer to practically post the buck’s GPS coordinates. A more vague location would have served just fine.
Years ago there was a study done. Twenty bucks were placed in a high fenced 10 acre brushy treed up plot of land. And some of the bucks had bright colored ribbons tied onto their antlers.
They placed a few hunters in there...some very experienced, some not so much.
The results were interesting....Deer can hide, like you wouldn't believe.
Now, granted...a white one might have a disadvantage. But, snow geese don't seem to have a problem being pure white.
FWIW_
