Poor genetics or a Belief

Picture this situation, Your all strapped in in your treestand and its almost prime time in the evening, you just had a hot doe walk by and urinate on the scrap your hunting over and 15 minutes later a chipmunk is out gathering nuts and that just got your heart going as it was coming from where the doe did earlier. Crack, you just heard a stick break over the ridge, rustling leaves and some hoof drag coming right at you... Your eyes are totally locked in on the action. Here THEY come, 2 150 class bucks, and they are shooters but one is albino and its a perfect main frame 10 and the brown deer is also a main frame 10 with a little character off the tines.. What would you shoot if they were to come in scent check the scrap and offer a 20 yd broadside shot...

I would nail the Albino for One reason, and thats because of bad genetics and its not good for the future genetics of this area. I would love to harvest a character buck but with the albino being rare in most areas that would also be the once in a lifetime trophy..
Ive read and heard that its bad luck and you'll die in 7 years and all kinds of jazz with spirits and all...
What buck would you harvest?
 
I agree with the 7 year thing, have heard that before.
And as stated it's against the law here.

i would shoot the brown. i love character but if both score the same and if it wasnt against the law to shoot albino i would shoot it....
 
I think it was one of my farmer buddies who said, "If it's brown put it down!" So since that's the only choice I have in Iowa, well you get the picture.
