you are not wrong, older bucks have bigger racks. Each year they lose them and if their genetics are good and the buck is healthy he will grow a larger rack the following year.

So the thought that 10+ point bucks are elusive and earned their racks is pretty accurate. That and most hunting clubs won't allow the shooting of smaller racks in order for them to grow and get bigger

Right, I learned that as well... but I thought “points” were grown/earned over time... as in a young buck has 4 points, stays alive for 10 years, the same antlers will grow into a 14+ point.

Either way, however it happens, I was honestly rather shocked to learn that all bucks’ antlers are shed each year.
