I really would not! (and I'm tall and large myself). I once rode a really big one in Iceland, genuinely above 15hh, and I really didn't like him. He felt sooooooo cumbersome, not fast and nippy like the ones I'm used to. Skessa, who I had on loan before xmas, is 14hh and a bit, and that's plenty big enough.
