[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5792081, member: 1409"] True, but the difference tends to be more a gain in circumferences, which can make the antlers appear more massive than just a 4% gain in "B & C" score. As they mature . . . . . . They not only tend to get more of their "score" from circumferences, but often lose some tine lengths. This could mean a 125" 5 1/2 "could" have 10% more "mass" (from circumference), and slightly shorter tines than a 120" (yet the "score" difference may be only 4%). Bucks 5 1/2 & older have a tendency to develop odd or non-typical tines (on typical frame racks), which can add very unique aspects to their racks. This to me makes them a more unique trophy, even when they may "score" little more than when they were a year or two younger. [/QUOTE]
