Age thoughts?

 

[Andy S.]

3.5 for sure, but I would not be surprised if he's 4.5.

I'm going to send his teeth for analysis. Thanks for the reply .

4.5

Do you have any clean clear pics of his teeth so we can look at toothwear? Clean them up (no blood etc), top profile, side profile and something in the pics for scale, like a dime or quarter helps.

Andy S. would like to see a full set of upper and lower jaw X-rays and photos of over bite.

 

[Andy S.]

^^^^^ Bitewings and periapical (PAs) are my preference.

 

[JCDEERMAN]

Only going off those 2 pics, I tend to lean slightly more toward 4.5.

 

[cbhunter]

I'm in the likely 4.5 crowd

1st pic looks 3.5
2nd pic looks 4.5

Have not fully camped him out yet. Thanks for the replies. Minimum of 3.5 for sure . He was a small body buck compared to 2 large ones in the cooler. Still think 3.5 or older . Just the body size had me question his age

 

[backyardtndeer]

Looks 4.5 to me.

My thoughts exactly.

Would like to see the jawbone pics as Andy requested also when you get him caped out.

 

[tree_ghost]

I think 3.5

 

[TheLBLman]

The correct answer is 3 1/2 or older

Don't you'uns know you is supposed to
age these deer in a biologically sound manner?
Hey, this may even get a rise from the Bambi Buster.
