Quickie:  For Whitetail or Mule Deer, marinate meat in buttermilk overnight.  This tenderizes the meat as well as removes a lot of the potential gaminess of the flavor.  (Gaminess can be caused by the deer's diet (strong herbs & forbs), prolonged stress at harvest (chase), not bleeding out properly, bad shooting (gut shot), bad field dressing (not removing scent glands, not cooling properly, etc.). Some cooks prefer to use vinegar as a marinade (rinse vinegar off before cooking).
