Best Wild Game Meat

This is interesting too, more than 1 in 3 said elk is best.

You forgot Oryx, I heard it is some of the best table fair.

When I saw this poll, I wondered if it would be on here and it is now.  This is not even close for me.

When we hunted oryx in New Mexico I was asking some of the guys from there how it eats.  The only quote they gave me was to ask, "How do you like elk meat?"  I replied, "I love it".

"Well, if you get home and don't have room for the oryx, throw out the elk!"

I figured that was a pretty bold statement until I harvested my oryx and got to get it on the grill.  It not only was the cleanest smeeling game I have harvested it tastes great.  In way of additional support for its great tasste, I have served it to a fair amount of friends and to a person they all asked if I had any that I could share.

If you ever get the chance or have thought about trying for the New Mexico draw, make sure you go.  It is a great hunt and great game meat.

I selected Elk, but it is because I haven't tried many on the list - moose, caribou, etc.

Bear is my other favorite, but it has been awhile since I have had any around.

At first I as going to say any of the wild sheep but to get specific, I too will go with Dall sheep with Stone a close second.
