Another vote for bison. Antelope can vary from being nearly inedible to really good. Mule deer about the same. Whitetail seem consistently better than mule deer. And elk is generally pretty good, although a big old rutting bull is usually a "sausage special". But for my taste buds, it's bison - well seasoned in a garlic based marinade.

While elk is up there, it's just not as good as moose, imho. The wife would vote for moose too.

The elk i shot last year was pretty tasty. I'd say elk 1st with venison running a close 2nd. Fried rabbit or squirrel rank pretty high with me also though along with pheasant

Pheasant first, elk second and venison third, but they are all close (and yummy! )

I have never had moose so...

Elk is #1, caribou #2 (tastes like a mix between elk and deer to me), deer#3.

I am surprized by the "rutting bull elk is good only for sausage". I've never had that experience at all.

If everyone that had voted on this poll had eaten everything listed it is highly doubtful that Venison (Deer) would be in the lead

Hard to know somethings better if you have not tried it![8D]
