THey both have their advantages. I, myself ride drops and feel pretty comfortable with them. However, like someone mentioned, your head fits a bit lower, I guess I got used to it, but I'vnt had a problem yet. Only concern is if you are going to do skids. Bullhorns are better for that sice they don't get in the way of your thigh. I would switch over to bullhorns for tricks, but just love the look of the drops.
