Kinda wandering in the topic but I think it fits...

Do you or do you not display you deer to some degree when hauling it home?

I'm guilty of it. An example? How about loading the buck into your pickup and his antler rests on something else in the bed propping up the rack just a little bit extra. The antler is stable and is in no danger of damage in transit. Do you remove said object or let folks assume a size?
