For the life of me, I can't remember a more nasty tasting animal than a freaking pronghorn! It's honestly the only animal I've ever taken that I cannot eat. Wife refuses to allow it in the kitchen it smells so 'goaty' when it's frying. I suppose it could just be an individual preference as I'm somewhat picky about things. For example, I can't imagine eating liver or pickles ever in my life but many people love both. For what it's worth, all of ours have come from the sage flats with no agriculture around.
Ate my first antelope last year and it was fine. Meat was certainly lighter colored than the whitetail venison we shoot in Illinois and Missouri. I believe you are cooking it wrong. Or, your palette prefers a different taste.
