Default RE: Edible antelope???

I have eaten more than my share of antelope and I ahve neve rhad a bad one. In fact, my wife likes it better than elk...
One thing to be careful of, do not shoot an antelope that has been chased or running hard-they fill up with adrenalin (sp?) and will taste strong. Of course a buck will taste stronger than a young doe.
One thing that will almost gurantee a good tasting antelope..here in Montana we have a lot of alfalfa fields and it is natures marinade-Lol..
Shoot an antelope feeding quietly in such a field, buck or doe,I can almost gurantee a good meal.
Oh, antelope meat needs to be seared quickly and eaten with a slightly pink center-it is very dry meat..
Take care.
