Wood for Venison?

[nomorecoop]

Smoking a small venison roast today. Marinated overnight in Allegro. Can't make up my mind on the choice of wood. Here's my choices...

Maple (white & sugar)
Apple
Cherry
Hickory
Red Oak

Combinations would work as well.

Thoughts everyone?????

Hickory!

cherry is a good fist choice that ahs a reputation for complimenting wild game, so is apple or maple - i've done a 1:1:1 combination of the three and have had very good results.

there is absolutely no bad choice,

What Bubba said! The only thing I do different is mix in a little apple. Smoked venison is good stuff.
