Well Moose thank you for you "objective" opinion ...now let me give you mine ...I would take mass over spread anyday ... I mean you have two nice deer but if they were hagging with 50 other deer at a show they would look like just another typical 8 point ... on the other hand if you see a BIG non typical with MASS your most likely not going to forget it ... now Im not "busting" your deer but thats just my humble opinion .. I mean it kind of reminds me of tha old Sly and The family song "Different Strokes for Different Folks" ...some guys like skinny wide racks like yours and some like narrow, massive heavy racks with large drop tines like mine ... thats what makes this sport GREAT!
