The problem with getting game from someone else is that you usually have no idea how the carcass was taken care of. Thinkg like proper field dressing, cooling, keeping meat clean etc... can all impact hot it is on the table. If it wasn't properly cared for, it won't be the same as one that has been.
That's the biggest reason why I insist on taking care of mine own from the shot, through the field care, to the butchering to the skillet. I control the entire process so I know it has been done right.
