I agreee with ya Justin on the ruttin bucks tastin nasty
. But have to disagree with you about the lactating does tasting funky. ALL the does this time of year are lactating, unless they lost a fawn early on. How do you tell if they aren't, hunt from a pit and hope they walk over top of ya so you can check the udder? 
Just gotta get to know your quarry a little better.

Maybe all does have fawns every year out there were they are grain fed, but out here some dont. Justin
