    well I can now vote...
    the fallow I butcher myself. the one meal iv now had of red was butched by a butcher. I don't see why there would be a difference. both porterhouse/back steak just cut off the animal.
    both deer were living in bush coming out to feed on grass.
    its been a few supermarket meals since iv had fallow but I would nearly say the fallow was a bit stronger tasting, but not much if any.
    I think theres bugger all in it, there both venison and it is what it is. its a lean meat and much the same.

    it was also a first that I had sausages etc made from a butcher. and id rather eat the sausage, patties etc over the steak. its got to be the added fat.
    so what am I going to vote for... neither, its too close to call, its all venison. but obviously everyone has different tastes.

    Both amazing. What the animals been feeding on how old it is how its killed, aged and cooked will impact greater than breed IMO

    Had some backsteaks off a red yearling last night - as good as any fallow I've had. I've always find sika pretty tasty too.

    I like fallow, sika and red in that order (but there is really nothing in it!) if its killed and butchered right. I like the fat a fallow can get around the backsteaks.
    Do what ya want! Ya will anyway.

    What can you do Gibo? He's young.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
