[QUOTE="3waycross, post: 452001, member: 6713"] I agree on the flavor of a mature animal. This year my son killed a 5 point bull Elk and another family member killed a very young calf Elk by accident. The calf was tender but had no flavor. The bull which was very fat was the best tasting Elk we have had in years. In response to another post the thing that gives a spooked animal an off flavor is not the adrenilan but what is left after it burns off which is Lactic Acid. It takes hours to days to leave the meat, depending on the metabolic rate of the animal in question. Having said all that I would still steer em young and eat em early when it comes to beef. [/QUOTE]
