Default Mass or Spread

Ok guys and gals if you could only take one big buck in your lifetime what would be most important to you rack wise ... LOTS of SPREAD or Tons of Mass .... I know we would all like both but for the sake of this poll which would you take?

I would rather take a buck with alot of thick mass on his rack over a buck with a wide thin rack , but when it comes down to the truth if any good eight point walks within bow range ..... I'm shooting.

Actually a massive spread is nice, but I like a wide spread with long tines.

i saw a 4 pointer this year that was really massive for its size. point is a buck with big mass can still be small, a buck with a 2 foot spread would be a monster no matter how thin it is

If i had to chose i would have to go with mainly spread. I just love the looks of a nice wide spread but dont get me wrong mass looks really nice too but ive always liked spread.

id take mass over anything because you could have a really tall massive buck and a really wide buck with no mass next to each other and id pic the massive one every time IMO
