Which trail to the Bonds?

I've been going back & forth researching how to hike the Bonds and I wanted to get a general consensus. Originally I planned to take the Lincoln Woods trail and hit Bondcliff, Bond, and West Bond heading from the south. But I'm thinking of instead going south via Zealand and Guyot.

Has anyone here done both? I'm leaning toward the latter since it's a little shorter (18.5 miles to 22.5 miles). Originally I planned on doing Zealand with Hale but I want to hit Guyot as well, and would rather do Guyot with Zealand than with the Twins.
