I've shot some OK trophy critters,nothing special scoring-wise, missed a few chances at some good ones. Primarily interested in meat, but, I can wait til the last couple of weekends of the season for that.
As to the rifleman's question on rutty taste, it's usually diet that dictates meat quality.
Mulies seem the most prone to getting strong once they hit winter feed. Haven't had a bad November whitetail yet, but I have had a couple of strong mulies, both from late Nov. in the mountains. Prairie mulies on cropland don't seem to get that way, I think it is the mountain animals hitting the pine in those areas that does that. That's my theory anyhow.
