I prefer the looks of a nice symetrical typical. However, to me non-typicals are rare, I've only seen 1 from my stand in over 40 years. They still impress me though and my goal is to shoot one some day even though I like typicals better.

How can 300 inches of antler on a wild deer not be impressive!!??

I like mass,any kind of mass.

I love those big narly non's and the big typicals.

I think I like the really big non's better than the typicals,maybe because I grew up with a 196" typical on the wall of my house.

Rob's just tired of shooting his "non typical" half racks, that's why he doesn't like them.

I’m not saying that it’s not true but 400” in the wild is hard to believe.

I have my doubts about this, and would prolly go with the just a rumor people.

What is not a rumor is the world record buck was killed just 10 min from my house. (Not a hunting kill tho).

If you've ever held a 400" elk rack, you'll know how nearly impossible this sounds. Even if it's a Photoshop job, I'm sure we'd all like to see what a 400" deer looks like. Bring on those pics...

Oh hell yeah Greg but if I had two standing side by side I'd pick the typical...Now I'm talking the freak racks like Beatty's and that former Goliath buck....they just don't impress me.
God knows you shot enough freak racks already[8D]
