Antelope is my favorite. I really don't know if I prefer it over elk or they are tied on my list.
Care is the issue. Get it cold ASAP. I dropped a doe a few weeks back. It was about 45 minutes from shot to ice chest. Those tenderloins were off the chain good. No, great.
When you draw a tag next time, I can't recommend enough that you get an area with a lot of farming. They will still eat sage, but when they get crops, you can taste the difference.
Congrats! Love the dinners. Stuff those roasts with rosemary and onion. They will be something you talk about for years.
