Around where I grew up, deer ate a lot of corn and had no "gamey" taste.

Have no problem at all with hunting. We got rid of all the predators, so now we have deer who go hungry in the winter or wander into traffic. A good hunter kills humanely. I don't hunt myself but have been on a hunt. SO much more humane than a slaughterhouse.
