My antlers, my house....

The taxi don't need the antlers till just before they go on. If they are in your house you have some control over them.

Sitting over at the taxi, be a dang shame if something happens to them over there.....year or two ago, a taxidermist around here was broken into and about a half a dozen or so antler sets were taken.....be a shame to lose your permenant memento of that seasons hunt that way. Probably the main reason why my current taxidermist asks you to take your antlers home with you.....
