Wrapping it with bacon while grilling is clutch. Gets rid of the gamy taste.

According to Miajag's statistics, you beat the odds.

A lot of the gamy taste can be remedied by properly preparing the meat. Keeping it in a cooler with ice for a couple of days while periodically refreshing the ice and draining the water will help a lot.

Softening up the meat is another story.

Where in WI are you hunting, Shoe? I'll be about a half hour north of Wausau.

Good luck!

I am personally against hunting, but then i see the statistics of Deers killing people in accidents and such. So i dunno.

As ironic as it may sound, hunting actually helps the deer herd (overall). The land can't support as many deer during the winter as it otherwise can during the spring, summer, and fall. If there was no hunting, many more deer would die of starvation/disease, and often would die a much more-painful/slower death than otherwise caused by hunting. The deer that survive the hunt will be stronger and healthier throughout the winter months and raise healthier fawns in the spring.

True, some of this humans have brought on themselves, as deer don't have many natural predators anymore. There are a few bad apples out there that taint the reputation of hunters, but 99% of us want to kill the deer as humanely as possible and just put some meat on the table for the family to enjoy, with an added benefit being we are helping the overall health of the herd.

Would have been much cooler had the sow snuck up on them from behind while they were lining up the boar.
