I believe it is the hormones that cause lactation that change the taste, but yes a lactating doe does taste bad.  Justin

Hillbilly:
Hmm, I don't know about that, I've ate a few and they tasted like any other deer. Might be a regional thing. Plus you get a free glass of milk.  ;D  ;D

I like milk cold thanks.  ;) Might be a mule deer thing too. We dont shoot the rutting bucks either, they taste funky too.  Justin

Minuteman:
I agreee with ya Justin on the ruttin bucks tastin nasty  :o. But have to disagree with you about the lactating does tasting funky. ALL the does this time of year are lactating, unless they lost a fawn early on. How do you tell if they aren't, hunt from a pit and hope they walk over top of ya so you can check the udder? ???

armymedic.2:
i have eaten a lot of lactating does, all tasted good to me.  i have had bucks that taste bad, but not all.  the older ones have always tasted bad for me, but you can't tell when they are made into sausage!   and yeah, bambi is by far the best tasting-hands down, no questions asked or accepted  ;)
