Can I shoot them in the air?
Should I wait till they land?
Hunting has been slow this year and the freezer is thinning out, I need to restock. I was thinking reindeer would fit the bill well. In Pa they're not listed as a game animal and they're an invasive species. I would be doing the favor if I cull a few!
Should I bait them?

Park the truck next to the down slope of the house and shoot em' off the roof.

You'll also want the 16" blade M1905 bayonet, not one of the later 10" ones. While the REINDEER are tiny, the fat man driving them is pretty thick. . .

The Curtiss P-40 was a superior performer to the P-51 if you kept it to lower altitude and below 250mph
The P-51 was faster, better at altitude, and had the range to pursue long distances.
A sleigh drawn by two columns of reindeer is a very narrow target, which suggests that the tightly-clustered nose armament of the P-38 Lightning, might offer advantages. Conversely, the wide-spread eight .50 calibers of the P-47 Thunderbolt may provide a better shotgun effect if those reindeer are highly maneuverable (probably determined by the present-load of the sleigh more than anything else).
The P-39 Airacobra was kind of a slug, but it had that 37mm cannon in the nose - one and done.
Or are these reindeer more like the German jets that outperformed all the fighter assets we had at the time? In that case, strategic bombing of the North Pole is the only practical solution.

Next year I use the Beretta or maybe buy a Sega!

Start with Jennifer Grey saying "Oh my God!", and roll film from there. What do you think - colorful package bombing in place of rockets and MG's?
