Where was the hunt? Couldn't agree more about the meat. Around 35 years ago when my daughters were 6-10, they couldn't wait for me to get home and grill antelope tenderloin for them. They called it "soft beef" and it was their favorite meat. You have to take into account that we raised and direct sold Belted Galloway's at the time, which in my opinion were the best cattle meat available. I won several chili competitions over the years, and never once revealed that it was antelope meat. I let people assume it was roast meat from our cattle. People who would not eat wild game would wolf it down. I will say that I particularly liked the animals from around Rollins when I hunted there. With all the sagebrush, it had a natural flavor the was incredible. When I hunted there, I would buy 2 or 3 doe permits (which never seemed to sell enough to meet their quota for management) and ship the meat home. I kept the steaks and roasts and had the rest made into antelope sausage links before shipping.
Now I've made myself hungry.
Nice buck and gun!
