First TN RDG RNR, I'm sure glad you're OK. That must have been a scary incident.
She didnt have any teeth except the bottom front 4. Anyone want to guess on an age?
But second, you're making a common mistake when looking to age by toothwear. Deer have a large "gap" between their front incisors and their rear molars. I don't know how many times I've had someone tell me, "my deer didn't even have any back teeth!" They just didn't look far enough back. The molars are WAY back inside the deer's cheek. You have to pull the cheek away from the jaw and look way back in towards the corner of the jaw-hinge see them.

Deer do not have front upper incisors. They have a bony "plate" in the roof of their mouth instead. They don't "bite" off food, they "strip off" food by pinching it between their lower incisors and the plate in the front-top of their mouth. This often leaves a "ragged" end to any twig or plant they eat. In fact, that's one of the ways you can tell the difference between deer feeding and rabbits feeding. Deer strip off the plants they are eating, often leaving a "tag" of plant material on the upper side of the bite mark.

I love to hunt deer, but it makes me sad to see them pass away by the front end of a vehicle. Glad you werent hurt. That can be a fatal accident for all involved and not just the animal.
