I rank antelope ahead of deer (muley or whitetail) but behind elk. I have seen one antelope out of about 30 killed in our family that wasn't good eating, in fact it was awful (an old buck, just missed B&C). I killed him in his bed and took good care of the meat, but it tastes like it has lime spread all over it.

I think one big key is how you hunt the things. Some people like to play WWII armored assault with antelope, chasing them in vehicles and shooting them on the run, and other such nonsense. I wouldn't be wild about eating an antelope that had been run around like that.

One little trick I have recently come on for "taming" my bad eater, is to slice up the steaks and soak them 24 hours in hard apple cider. Then pound, bread, and fry in olive oil. Makes that old buck taste like something in a fancy restaurant.
