N E 450 No2I like non typical horns better than a perfectly balanced rack.
Also, I like High horned deer much better than a wide spread.

SDhunterNothing says mature, like mass.
Honestly, I want them all. Still looking for the dream buck with all of them.

JudgeGI like mass, lots of points, non-typical points, tine length.... but width? I almost didn't shoot this buck because he was only 19" inside. That is.... almost didn't shoot for about 2 seconds.

scottfromdallasI like mass but I need them to be at least 13" wide to legally shoot in my county.

LapidaryIs it wrong to want one with tall tines, lots of points and mass, and a huge spread?
