Somebody on here should be able to dig up the study on adging deer .It was outdoor life or noth american whitetail It was in the early 80s ,done in alabama at a large meat plant.They did it every way ,hair on, hair off ,1 day ,5 days up to maybe 5 weeks . They used dozens of taste testers and score cards. The best was 28 days at 38 degrees with hair on. I used a gutted out fridge . Some people might call it rotten but I call good eaten.
