I was thinking the same thing. That'd only be a problem in FL if you killed all 3 in one day. Of course, if you were hunting in FL, the chances of seeing 3 nice bucks in one day are slim to none.

So why do you wrap the antler in foil?

You get 2 per season. 1 anysize and 1 that has to have 4 points on 1 side. Year before last I shot 2 bucks on one hunt and just had to watch them after that and wait for does.

To keep the expandafoam off of them. It's heck to get off of something you dont want it on. I have a bout $5 material in each one when finished.
