Default Mount suggestions please

What position would make this tall rack look the best? I was thinking either a sneak or upright head down turn...? What looks best for a rack thats more tall than it is wide? Thanks

I'm a big fan of the Semi-sneak style.. but that's all personal preference.

Yeah I like the semi-sneak too. I saw a nice mount in a full upright head down aggressive position, I really liked that. I've never killed a deer with a tall skinny rack, just wanted to know what would make it stand out best. Thanks though, I'll think about the semi-sneak.

Pose doesn't really matter but what will make it stand out is to put the ears back. WHen a taxi puts the ears forward all you see are these 2 big white flags, unless it's a huge deer. But with the ears back all that shows is the rack.
