You are always welcome here you know that
Axis is good eats...how is blackbuck?
Mature Blackbuck bucks are usually between 80 and 105 lbs. Their hams, tenders and backstap are prime. Their meat is very dark, like axis or sika.
It makes excellent jerky, chicken fried steaks,or butterfly steaks. It can be more gamey tasting than whitetail. It also works well in mixing with pork to make link/pan/summer sausage.
The does, though smaller are also excellent table fare.
How sweet it is

Hmmm thats intersting. We tried black buck years ago, had to put it into sausage finally. Not impressed.
Then one rainy night we were tasked with finding a mouflon ewe. For the gals cooking for their paid hunters when we were guiding. It was raining hard and on 16K acres on a 2.5 hour drive, we found only blackbuck so head shot a doe with 22 mag. Got chewed out good when we got back. It was what it was though.
Actually the gals covered it so much almost all you coiuld taste was bell pepper. Told us to come home empty handed next time instead of blackbuck...
I'm sure it can vary as to diet as we all know.
