Tall and Narrow or Tall and Wide??

Unread postby Sam Ubl » Wed Aug 11, 2010 9:05 am

My vote is TALL & NARROW all the way. I think those make for the coolest looking bucks, however I have a feeling many won't agree. So what do you say?

100% tall for me does not matter if narrow or wide, I like the height for some reason. PS I like some thickness to the rack not a toothpick.

If they're heavy, palmated and narly, I agree - narrow is awesome.

I'd go tall and narrow if they have above average mass and some junk. Otherwise, they need some width.

Wide, heavy AND tall is impressive to me, even a short tined rack looks more impressive to me so long as it is wide and heavy.

It doesn't matter to me if they are wide or narrow, short or tall but must have mass and hopefully some junk!
