Pheasant and grouse are both pretty good. Young rabbits and yearling deer are also fairly tasty, but a little bit gamier.
I've eaten porcupine and peacock as well and they were also very good. Porcupine tastes very much like beef, but has a few more sinews. Peacock tastes just like pheasant.

Monopoly can be a bit dry, but maybe if you marinate the paper money...

I have tried deer, quail, and rabbit. The deer was made into jerky, the quail was made on a grill, IIRC, and the rabbit was right off of the camp fire. I have to say I liked the rabbit the best. I've heard good things about rattlesnake, though. I'm looking forward to that one.

Some years ago a friend shot a very young black bear. It was very tender and truly delicious. Apparently, bears don't get tough and stringy until they become adolescents.

For upland bird, I have to say that chukkar is about the best I have ever eaten. Pheasant and grouse are pretty good as well. For big-game, buffalo. For big game that can't be easily bought in the store, my vote is elk.
On the flip side, I don't like duck or goose, which explains my not hunting them at all. I know a lot of people think a fat goose is manna from heaven, but for whatever reason I have just not ever cared for it. I have tried many, many preparations in hopes that I find something about goose that I like, and I ahve yet to find the one that works...

Grouse, or as they are known out here, "Pahtridge".
I also like moose, very tender and not gamy.

Quail.
And squirrel fried in a skillet.
And gravy.
And batter bread => www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,1977,FOOD_9936_18746,00.html "Remove skillet from the oven, tilt so that lard greases both the sides and the bottom, and then pour the hot lard into the batter. Stir briskly just to mix."
