I was told by landowners and guides that the meat is no good. A friend shot a really big trophy animal and took the head and hide but left the meat .
I hunted a ranch near Hondo where I could have shot as many as I could afford, but I prefer game that is good to eat like elk, red deer, hogs, Nilgai, and such, so no Audads for me.


They taste fine.

I've also had people say pronghorn is terrible, wrong. Sage grouse inedible, wrong. Sharp-tailed grouse same...and again wrong. Large boar feral hogs are disgusting table fare, incorrect.

Its almost like these people either A. Dont know how to care for the animal in the field B. Cant cook for sheit. C. Are lazy and dont want to hassle with the "icky" game meat.
