Deer are like any other animal that you buy for meat at the grocery store.... chicken , beef , pork , turkey , fish , whatever comes from young animals , not from old bulls, boars or roosters. To me, a 1 1/2 year old is best followed by a 2 1/2 year old which produces more meat for the effort. This year I'm trying to get enough meat to last without killing does. More bang for the buck so to speak , or do I have that backwards?
