Nothing is nastier to eat than a mature rutting buck,wormy buck is 2nd place,stinky boar hog 3d place,puss pocket boar is all time best eating critter.
Could not do it.
My first boar was weighted 184 lb. It was a one healthy looking boar and it was the only hog that came out of the bushes so I was like "Why not?" so I shot him with my .30-06 with 150gr Winchester.
As soon as I shot him, I waited till he finally had his last breath, then I took my knife out and cut his nut sack off ( someone told me to do this to minimize nasty smell or something like that so I did it)
After cleaning procedure was done, I seasoned them up and put them in the cooler with ice for a night.
Next morning, I called couple of my buddies over to my house, we grilled some of those meats and they were delicious.
I really don't know when other people say "Nasty, smelly, and chewy meat boars" but based on what I experienced so far, I never had any problem eating boar.
I mean they may smell and nasty when they become way too old..?

Truthfully there is something to soaking hog meat in ice& water- just a type of brineing. It can make a bad one good. My friends- group of hunters are convinced after they tried it.
All my kills get packed in ice for days
