Good evening:
Not a whole lot of experience deer hunting - my son has killed two white tail does, and I've killed a little button buck, so my question is about mature white tail bucks - is the meat, besides the backstraps and the tenderloins good to eat, or are they too tough and non-tasty? I've heard some say they take everything except the backstraps and tenderloins and either grind the meat for sausage or have it made into jerky. I've heard others say the meat is tougher and drier than the meat from a doe, but is still good eating. I've also heard...well, you get the idea. So, I'd really appreciate some advice from TBH'ers with more experience for their advice.
Thank you,
Dave
