We've done it both ways for our clients. I think it's best if you can get the meat on the plane. You can either ship the trophy home like explained above, or your outfitter can recomend a good taxidermist right here. Then either ship it back, or pick it up next time you happen to be in Montana. The longest that could be is next deer season, right?
