I think that you meant hitch instead of trailer.
Yes, sorry, reverse what I wrote.
Is it best to shoot for (purchase) a WDH with TW on the lower end or higher end of the trailer TW?

You match the rating of the spring bars included with the WDH as closely as possible. Weigh the hitch first, the sales flyer doesn't give you accurate weights ready to tow. The WDH manufacturer usually has a chart to direct you to the proper spring bars. And no, heavier is not better, correct is better.
Okay, I was getting thrown off because etrailer lists WDH as having a weight *range* and then, after reading your post, I saw other sites have an exact weight (not a range) on hitches.
If I am ready to purchase a TT with a listed TW of 630 lbs, but have to purchase a WDH
before I take ownership and drive it home, I am wondering what hitch to buy? I wont be able to load the TT with all my stuff and weigh it first prior to getting the TT.
A 600lb WDH would be too low.
So then 700 or 750lb WDH would be ideal?
