[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 1704819, member: 13632"] Elk can have an odd smell that does not seem to have any effect on the taste but it's a smell that won't make you gag but makes you wonder, if you smell it and your first reaction is to yack it's soured elk if it just makes you wonder then it's just elk, some will be that way bulls, cows don't seem to matter, I've had alfalfa feed cows have a strong smell but the flavor was excellent, same with bulls, arrowed them in high country sage brush all horned up and they were excellent table fair, one of the most knarled bulls I killed was a 6.5 year old bull that was all broken from fighting and had a couple bullet holes in him that were healing, he was supremely excellent eating, it's almost all in the meat care, we don't even label a cow from a bull anymore cause it'll all eat the same with good care and cooked correctly.
