I talked to a guy last year with mule deer. Four of them came back with I think 3 mulies. He said it was terrible compared to whitetail. They were having sausage made.
I think you are what you eat! My husband came back from Montana with a mule deer once, and the sage taste in the meat was extremely strong. I can see why you would make it into sausage. I could partially disguise the ground meat in spicy tomato and spaghetti sauce type of dishes, but the larger roasts and chops tasted really strong and he has no desire to bag another one. The whitetail deer we get around here have access to corn and alfalfa fields between woodlands. They taste great. We actually prefer venison to beef, which tastes too fatty to us now.
