I will not shoot anything with spots, empty freezer or not, but it is my intention to fill the freezer. I use antlers for only 2 things, we screw 'em to the cabin walls as hanging hooks for all sort of things, and I supply antlers from time to time to a Indian knife maker for handles. Last delivery I traded a paper box load for a #100 anvil from the 1850-1870 era.
I have never had a mount made, nor would I waste the money. I haven't found a good recipe for antlers yet.
Side note: my father-in-law gave up hunting, when the lead of thier hunting party declared no one could shoot less than a 6 point. And no does until each had thier own buck. Pissed him off enough to hang up his hunting gear for all time. (Gifted and sold some of it to me)
