Deer meat is deer meat no matter what you soak it in. Have left it in icechest with ice & plenty of water for up 7 days. Outside is real light & You can cut into a hind quater, backstrap or whatever & it's gonna be dark inside which is blood. Have left them hang in walk in cooler for 7 days & all of it is dark with blood. It all taste the same......taste Like deer meat, It's a mind thing! Now what you soak it in................Ice water, coke or acid
may change the texture & help break it down some so it's a little more tender but you're not gonna change the taste.
A deer taste like deer
duck taste like duck
dog taste like dog
unless you add a ton of seasoning & then it taste like seasoning
