7.5 back teeth look really wore down and the dentine is wide on the rest of the teeth

Old AF. I have seen spoons with sharper points than those teeth. 8.5 assuming he is protein fed and not eating gravel. Those pre-molars are gum-line nubs.

This method of aging varies a great deal depending on area and browse, but that deer is old (8.5+) no matter the area IMO. I've never seen teeth worn that badly in our area with our deer being primarily on pellets, cottonseed, and corn.
That deer could be 10+ if you are heavy supplemental feeding.

You have a pic showing the leftside of jaw. This side appears to have some unusual wear with every tooth sloping at an angle.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

I'd have to go take pics of it, but the other jaw did the same thing. I thought it was odd too that the teeth angled down like that on both sides, and not worn flat.

With abnormal toothwear like that one it is difficult to age them sometimes for me. That angle could be making it appear older than what the deer really was. I found this on the internet a couple of years ago now so it might help.

To heck with the teeth!...Us experts can tell just by looking at a picture of the deer!
Thursday at 12:45 PM #33 Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.
