RE: Deer Meat will your family eat it
I only shoot does or very young bucks. This will improve the taste by about 80 percent. It does not have near as much of what people call wild taste. I have been eating deer meat all my life as has my wife as my family and hers were big into hunting. Having said that niether of us will eat a buck unless there is no way around it. The last Buck I shot was a big OLD buck many years ago. We had to throw most of it out. Same for fish. Keep the smaller ones, clean them as quick as you can and you will have good eating. I have seen many people who say they don't like fish. They are the ones that drag them around on a stringer all day dead and then wonder why they don't taste good. To me its the same thing with wild game the old bigger males are just not that good to eat. The last Moose I had was a 60inch plus bull. We through 80 percent of that away. Never Again. They say you can't eat the horns but I take that a step further and say you would be better off eating the horns.
