CouesWhitetail Report post Posted December 9, 2010 On the other hand.....Scott Adams 124 inch buck seems to only be 5 years old based on tooth wear. But there was a burn in that area probably a year and a half before Scott killed him and the regrowth probably helped a ton with nutrition and it was a great antler year (meaning good rains and thus good vegetation growth) in general that year. I think Scott's buck would have gotten even larger as a 7-8 year old. It takes three things to make a great buck....Age, Nutrition, and Genetics. and we know Scott's buck was a beast the year before too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
