Game meats and/or "uncommon" meats

I am interested in trying some of the more uncommon meats out there, specifically game and wild animal meats. This is the list so far available on a local meat store:
Boar Rabbit Venison Goat Pheasant
Has anyone any experience with these meats? What's your favourite? How do they taste? Can they be compared to other meats?

I've had goat once or twice in Gyros and it was really good. Venison is pretty good as well but very lean so you have to be careful when cooking it or it comes out really dry. If you can I'd buy venison with some pork fat and grind it for sausage. Also if you have any Mexican meat markets you can find unusual parts such as cow tongue and cheek which is really good as barbacoa.

Rabbit is good. I like it on the barbeque. Wild turkey makes regular turkey look like shit, venison is some kind of meat god, and moose makes some dank everything.

Ground venison with spaghetti is unreal. One of my favorite if not thee favorite ways to cook it. Dicing up its tongue and throwing it in some flour stew is also up there in dankness.

All those meats are really tasty. I haven't had wild boar, but I've heard good things about it. Rabbit meat is delicious. Pheasant is similar to turkey. Venison is my favorite. It is best cooked rare as ostx mentioned otherwise it will be dry and hard to chew. I would love some deer steaks or even better some elk stakes right now. I could eat venison every day it's so good.

Have only had venison. It's good shit.
I wish we had a meat market nearby that offered that kinda stuff. The most variety I have access to is the local grocery stores. It's all just beef, chicken, pork and seafood.

Venison cut into strips then battered in egg, milk and flour then fried in s cast iron skillet is the way we always did it here. Seasoned right after it comes out and served with A-1 its fucking dominant.

Goat always tastes dry to me, but that may just be the way in which it was cooked.
You should try ostrich. Lean and delicious. Ostrich egg omlettes are decent too, but not much different than chicken eggs.

I love goat. Especially curry goat. Venison is good but I've only had it in stews. I've had a couple Buffalo burgers as well but they didn't taste like anything special to me

Not a fan of rabbit myself (too lean and dry for my tastes) but I agree with the rest of this.

Quite possible, I've only had it a few times and always made by the same person.

that's funny...goats cheese which is fucking delicious with onion marmilade btw is dry as hell! that's why you need the onion marilade, i used to make this a lot when i was a chef but never eaten goat meat eager to try some now
i have had rabit stew at a friends which was so rich and loved it, tried venision once but cant remember what that's like it was so long ago and it when i was a chef so just got the chance to sample a little, it wasnt great from memory though
i lold and recalled that scene from predator at wild boar... "you killed a pig" wonder how this tastes over normal swine

Venison is mindblowingly good. I've never tasted anything as good as high quality venison. This only applies to good venison though. Rabbit is boring. Pheasant is good, but fairly similar to chicken and turkey.

I've tried rabbit and kangaroo. Kangaroo steak is pretty delicious.
