I can tell by this statement that you have never eaten some of these exotics.
i gave up eating whitetail years ago after killing my first Axis deer.... it's not just me saying that either. Most people who hunt in areas that have Axis will trade you one axis buck or doe for as many WT as you want.
The best Exotic meat I've ever eaten is Eland but Axis is a very close second. Nilgai is very,very good also. Look at an animal that normally eats grass only and you will find a tasty piece of meat. Most deer are browsers and will eat a large array of scrubs and noxious weeds that make the animal taste gamey. I've eaten a bunch of WT's over the years but It's just not something I crave anymore. That being said if I decide to shoot one again I'll either eat it or give it away. Baker
