Those two whitetail deer my daughter and I shot last December aren't exactly great table fare IMO. And they were completely deboned within an hour of shooting them, one doe and one spike. The meat smelled bad even when we were deboning them, but after sitting in the cooler for a couple days on ice it didn't smell anymore. But the meat still doesn't taste all that great. These were our first whitetails.
I've never had bad elk, rutted up or not. And I've killed a gob of them.
I agree. I've never been a big fan of venison. I normally give the venison to the mission or my dog. Just give me elk and i'm a happy camper.
