Can you be pro-life and shoot a deer?

No, its not philosophically consistent, and the results of this poll are very sad.

Uhh no.  Believing a human embryo is precious life while a chicken is meant for food purposes is not inconsistent in any way whatsoever.

What does chicken have to do with this?? We're talking about Deer, who (usually) aren't meant to be food. Of course if venison is common in your neck of the woods, then okay. The thread title says deer not chicken.

What does the meat being commonly eaten have anything to do with it?

Now I'm really confused

See bolded text above. You seem to assert that it's ok to shoot the deer if venison is commonly eaten in his area, but it is not ok if it isn't.

Well I didn't mean it like that. Ideally, I don't want any animal to get killed but since I eat meat I'm just deluding myself. This just plays into Jake's hypothesis that I'm a liberal sissy.
