Try this: When you kill your deer, gut it at home if you can, after you skinned it. With MA allowing online kill registration you now can do this. Once you gut it, let it hang 12-24 hours. Then you can either quarter and freeze it to cut later or bone it all out fresh. I like to bone it all out and make cutlets out of everything peeling any skin off the meat. I use the old standby of freezer wrapping paper.
My favorite recipe is to fry in a pan with olive oil, butter, salt, pepper, garlic, some Worcestershire sauce, and Goya powder. It's delicious and everyone will like it, even the most finicky. Now for those guys who feel deer meat needs to taste like a musk gland, then no, they won't like it.
On the idea of aging: The whole idea of aging is based on the enzymes in the meat breaking down the meat and the fat. With deer, a majority of the heavy deer taste is from the fat and bone. An earlier comment about acorns and the taste of deer is quite common. But the bad acorn taste is stored mainly in the fat. Because of that, why would you want to hang a deer for a long time and let the enzymes break down the fat more and mix those flavors with the meat.
I am the member here who used to own a USDA slaughter house. We skinned and cut up many deer per year plus bear, and moose. We did on average over 300 per year. I always recommended pulling the hide quickly and cooling as fast as possible. Those who did or who were able to do that, always commented on a highly quality of taste, and moisture in their venison. I don't really care if you agree with me or not as last time I posted something like this, some here went off on me so I'm just telling those who are interested, to try the above technique and recipe. Then if you do try it, post here your findings, whether good or bad.
