Default Antelope

My son just filled his antelope tag today and we were wondering if there may be some issues with the taste of the meat. I've heard discussions about adrenalin causing poor taste in the meat. This was his first hunt and he chose to take an animal, a doe, that had already been hit and was lying down. When he approached her, she got up and started off but we could tell she was hit. He put her down with a shot and that was that. I commended him on taking an animal that was certain to die, but now and wondering if the meat may be " off tasting" because of the circumstances. Any comments?
