Jess and Morgan had some great questions in their comments on my last blog! HAHA! Well, let me answer those for you :)
If he gets his antelope today, (he's really hoping he does because he has to go home today) he is not going to eat it and neither would I if he even decided to keep it. He's going to give it to a guy he knows and his wife - because they like antelope I guess. Alex does not like to eat antelope and says that I probably wouldn't like it either. I guess it's pretty tough and has a real gamey (is that a word because people use it all the time - haha!) taste. Therefore, he is just going to give the whole thing away (except the horns - he wants to keep those).
HOWEVER! When he goes elk and deer hunting in November, for about 2 weeks right before Thanksgiving, he will most likely keep at least some of that. I have never had elk before, but I bet if it were made into ground meat (I almost said beef but no no, it's elk, not cow) I would probably like it because you can put it in stuff - like tacos and such, and you wouldn't be able to tell what it is. Kind of like Deb putting venison in our tacos :) You can't even tell what it is. At least, I'm never able to. But we'll see. That would be a lot of meat for two people (1 entire elk and 1 entire deer). But I would like to try elk sometime so we'll see if he gets his! Haha!
I hope that answers your questions :) See how much I'm learning from Alex just because he's from Montana :) Haha!

Thank you SO much for clearing that up for us! :) You are such a knowledgeable soon-to-be wifey! What a lucky guy he is :)
We love antelope! It is actually tender and tastes less gamey to me than most deer. So - you might try it sometime!! I found your blog thru facebook - hope that is OK!
