Don vs. Tasty: Don Wins

"Tasty" is the name of every buck who shows up on our property.  The does are all named "Sweetie."

With about two weeks left in this year's season, Don had come up short one buck on all his hunting expeditions.  Fortuitously, "Tasty" himself wandered through our 41-acre property one day and Don nailed him.  The shot was clean, death was instant, and Tasty was promptly dressed out and delivered to the local butcher.  He yielded about 110 pound of absolutely exquisite meat--the best venison I've ever had in my life.  It tastes more like beef than wild game.  Really.

We attribute much of his good flavor to the way he was taken.  Augustus McCrae ("Lonesome Dove") would have said, "Yes sir, he died fine."
