I have a reunion coming in 6 months. I'm a seasoned lifter, and was wondering, do you think circuit or body part training would be best? My goal is to bulk, I'm 5'11", 200lbs, somewhere in the 15- 17% bf, 61 years old.

Myself I don't care for the circuit training for bulking. But on the other side of it you are good to use it during the start up can and break in. I don't think you will build or break plateaus using the circuit method.
I think it more appropriate to get the overload / failure theory by using a muscle or group training method. You can concentrate on different muscles for their particular growth methods with more concentration, this being a big key. A routine as to 3 days on and 1 day off. Doing this will allow you more time per body part. On the day off you can do special training to a small body part that needs some attention.But not to fatigue your over need for Rest.
A routine as such you can hit most all parts twice a week.
I would say that the circuit training would better , done a higher rate of speed will help burn calories. You might add the quickness by using machines to be apart of you key aerobic time using a more stress routine of burning calories and getting hard. No Pun intended.

^^^^^agreed with my man Mike! As always....spot on
And I am a firm believer in each major muscle group twice per week as stated. And no worries, 6 months is enough time to drastically change your physique. Make sure the food is lined up to achieve your goal. Good luck bro
Looking forwarad to hearing back from you op, You can concentrate on different muscles for their particular growth methods with more concentration, this being a big key.
