Elk Calf, baby!
Better than USDA prime beef served on a gold plate by Kate Beckinsale (or your preferred wait person)

I had some caribou sausage when I was 15 yo that still makes me salivate just thinking about it.

I like it all. But as others have already said, it depends on diet, field prep, how it was cut/cooked, how quickly it died, etc. I have had moose, elk, deer (blacktail only), bear, antelope, and cougar. The deer was probably my least favorite. Moose and berry-gorged bear is at the top of my list.
A couple folks mentioned Dahl sheep. I have heard from a few others who have tried it and they say it is the best!
Also a couple of you mentioned some African plains game. A friend who has eaten most north American game and several varieties of plains game said the best meat he has ever eaten is Eland - hands down!

Nuthin' like a stinky ol' blacktail in full rut. Marinated in a fresh bottle of doe in estrus straight out of the bottle. Has a nice burn.....

Eland steaks medium rare, with a good bottle of red wine....
Elk is my second choice.
