12 days is my magic number.
Aging an animal increases tenderness and flavor profile. The activity of mold, fungus, and enzymes so their job to create the perfect meat.
I like to say it takes the flavor of a 16 ounce steak and condenses it down to an 8 ounce steak. Not that much meat is lost but the flavor profile is accurate with that description.

I always age my game for around this time, but I’ve been wanting to try the bone marrow out of the femurs. Can I still harvest the bone marrow after a 12-14 day hang? Is it even worth it?

What temp are you keeping the meat at?

Elk like all venison does not have internal fat (marbling) therefore aging it doesn’t actually accomplish anything
