I think I would. It would be better than letting him die of old age.

I would consider it.  Make it as good of a hunt as you can.  If he doesn't know you are there when you shoot him it isn't any different than any of those whitetail hunts on TV.  Setting up a good ambush or stand hunt on him would be way better than having him looking at ya when you shoot him.

Yep, take him. Deer that are fed apples are delicious. If not, get the word out for a young/old/disabled/active duty hunter to take him.

I think all of the islands are rifle restricted, I think you can use slugs but not 100%

Children feed him apples...

Another buck will soon replace him, and they can continue feeding the deer. (although feeding deer like that really is not a good idea)
