Default RE: Antelope good eating?

Properly cared for, antelope meat is superb, perhaps even the best of the wild game. As others have said, you must skin it and cool it down immediately. If this is done, it has a delicate texture without the gamey flavor some deer have. If you treat it like you would a deer and delay skinning and cooling it down, it's as bad as a rutting buck. When in good antelope country, we literally drive around with a cooler full of ice with the goal of having the quarters on ice within 20-30 minutes of the animal hitting the ground. Try it, you will be favorably impressed.
