Input on age? I will post pics of the deer later. I didn't want to influence opinions [emoji6]

Re: Age please

Lots of wear on that 4th and 5th molar. Not a lot on the 6th molar. I'd still say 5.5 though.

Re: Age please

4.5 is the book answer by looking at the 2nd and 3rd molars. However, the wear on the 1st molar with the dished out look suggests older. Since tooth wear only shows a minimum age, I will say 4.5+,

Re: Age please

atypical wear pattern, way too much wear on M1 compared to PM3 and M3. Love to see the other side and top jaw as well, but teeth were obviously misaligned. I could give a more accurate answer if I had those pics. Based on the single jawbone pic, I'm with Andy and would go 5.5

I defer to the gentlemen above on tooth wear age as this is definitely not a typical wear pattern, but I'll be your huckleberry on score @ 167"....where he heck did you kill that stud at?

I didn't kill the beast. A co-worker. Since it wasn't my kill, all I feel at liberty to say is it wasn't far from the TN/NC Border

As an added teaser I will say the beams are 26", G2s 13+, G3s 11+

As for mass, the smallest of the eight circumference measurements was 4" even

Well that just sent the score up... I reserve the right to resubmit a score of 183-5/8" [emoji33]

A guy posted that same deer on alder.com. He stated it was killed in Madison county Alabama. Just FYI.
Lol. This is the first time I've heard of a deer getting poached AFTER it was killed. What some people will do to "kill" a trophy deer. :roll:
