I am curious because I have only had WT, Hog and dove. Looking for opinions on the best tasting game meat you can hunt.

Axis

Elk!

Oryx hands down the best I have had. Followed close by addax.

Elk for sure. Axis is up there as well.

Cant forget about quail though!

Kudu... then Buffalo and Elk.

ah yes. quail. i have had quail too and that is up there on my list at this point

dangit, i have had bison too but it was not hunted. at least not by me. ate it at Bonelle's. good stuff.

Dove and venison are still my fav's. Never had alligator and so want to try it.

Of what I've had the elk I killed has been my favorite.

Any chicken fried game meat is good in my book, also.



I need to take a kid rabbit and squirrel hunting, that's pretty good eatin, too.

i think anything is good when it is chicken fried!

Elk and pheasant.

I had some sped goat this year and it was pretty good but mine would be deer,quail,and bass

Oryx, Axis then Elk in that order!!!!! I don't eat WT anymore.

Well TXHogger- you've had dove, that would be on my short list. I have never had any dove with any sort of gamy taste. I usually parboil and then scoop the meat off the bones and cook with sliced mushrooms,a little garlic, butter, and marsala wine- then over rice. Also good in tomato sauce and wrapped in bacon and put on a spit.
I've had early grouse that was as good as chicken. I'm told that later in the year grouse get eating pine needles and don't taste as good.
Squirrel, on the short list- always good. I make a Brunswick stew. If I know the squirrel is young -I ask the squirrel before I shoot it then it might get fried.
Quail, it's okay.
Venison and elk- okay
Ate one spring shot bear. The ribs were okay. Fall bear is supposed to taste better.
Buffalo- never had bad buffalo- better than beef IMHO.
turtle- good in turtle soup.
Still waiting on ground hog gravy- yeah it sounds crazy but I'm told it is outstanding.

Elk great taste
Axis very good
Alligator taste ok but tuff to chew
WT ok but not crazy about it

Elk , Axis , Oryx are my top 3 .

To me elk is the best

if you count Akaskan game, I have to put

Moose
Carribou

top of my list

Axis

Buffalo, quail, bullfrogs, alligator, crawfish....all the other stuff can be described as deer-like or chicken-like.

I know axis is all the rage but I don't care for it that much, taste a lot like audad sheep to me.

Ill have to go with feral pigs as the best.

Dove for me

Elk and axis are my 2 favorites for venison, then whitetail, bison too. But that's all I've had except for a pronghorn about 40 yrs ago and I don't recall that one much. Personally, I really like wild hog too. Hard to beat on the smoker or cut up and chicken fried. And, if you say it stinks, well, you're either processing it or cooking it wrong, lol
