The deer out here eat a lot of sage brush.Â* Their meat tastes like hell!

Just think of it as Thanksgiving sage and eat it. G


EEEEEEYUK!!!

Love elk and moose though!
A lot of white tail deer eat a lot of youpon bushes, so much so they
tend to prune stand alone youpon bushes. Doesn't affect the meat as far
as I can taste. Deer in Orange County, Texas seemed to like corn leaves
about as good as locusts. I have run upon deer carcasses with a hoof
caught in a small sweet gum tree so they can't be very smart.

I've never had a chance at eating elk or moose, have eaten a lot of
armadillo, snakes of all kinds, turtles, etc. When you're hungry you
will eat most anything. At my age I prefer sirloin steaks and, maybe a
good roast with sweet potatoes and green beans. Can't walk far enough to
hunt deer anymore and they won't let me shoot the one that beds down
behind my fence. I might take up archery again or try to stick a sword
between the fence boards. G
