Eight year old deer.
Yum...
I shot a mule deer doe in Western, Kansas. She was fairly large. My hunting partner and I divided the meat and the work.
It had an unusually good flavor, in fact tasted just about like beef. We did let his wife cook it all as she knew how to tenderize the meat. I tried grilling a loin. It tasted good but was tough. After that I did not even try to cook any more.
Fyi, regular gun season runs to next week, then black powder, archery continues, 2nd doe season...

I bet that old deer is tough as a boot. Best bet is to grind every last ounce of him into sausage.
**Phillips tells KSDK that he is donating the meat to Share the Harvest, a program that feeds those in need.**
LOL...that’s b/c he knows it will be tough as shoe leather.
It will make a great mount though.:)
