re: Good venison backstrap marinade

This ain't duck. No need to marinate...especially backstrap.

I cook it all different ways, but if you are grilling, I like to wrap a 6-8" section in as much bacon as it takes to cover. Then put on a medium-hot grill turning occasionally until bacon is cooked. That leaves it a good medium rare inside. As far as for seasoning, I just use a little olive oil, salt, pepper, and maybe a little Tony's.

Usually soak in Italian dressing for couple of days
