Venison makes really bad beef. And as long as you expect it to tates like beef it will taste bad. Same goes for most anything, if you think it's something it's not, you'll think it's a bad example of what it's not.
It's rather serendipitous that you say that as I recall a past experience. Long time ago a girlfriend once asked if I would like a coffee to which I said yes. Five minutes later she came back with the hot beverage in a cup which I then sipped and almost spit out. This was such horrid coffee. She thought she would delight me by bringing chicken noodle soup instead. However as I was expecting the taste of coffee it tasted bloody aweful. Once she explained that she was trying to delight me with something a little different for the winter's day and then I re-tasted it, with the knowledge of chicken soup in mind, it was very in fact very nice. Thirty years later I still remember what horrid coffee it was but what nice chicken soup it was also once I knew it was chicken soup. Crazy our minds can be!!! Cheers Justin Johansson
