    Big split G2s on both sides for a whitetail. I'd love to kill a deer with that. Oh wait.... :)

    I love dark chocolate colored horns... Only seen one in the field over the years and he was beautiful - hope I can get one some day! Also love mass, drop and bladed tines...

    I love perfectly symetrical evenly palmated racks or just some bone with lots and lots of junk. I mean the goodstuff like kickers, drop tines, flyers, and dog-killers. Those are the stickers on the bases of the antlers pointing directly outwards towards the nose of the deer. Ive seen a few of them on old adirondack bucks around the taxidermy shops in my area.

    My favorite antler characteristic is that it has a lot of venison attached to it.

    I like the real wide perfectly symetrical tall racks. No drops or oddities. I actually like em when they don't curl back in much. Just tall and wide.

    Definitely tall, heavy, and narrow. The more typical (sans differences between sides) the better, but I'm not picky. I would even take the one pictured below :D

    Palmation... and split G2's on a whitetail like a big muley... probably because I want a monster muley with my bow in the worst way!
