    I got this doe last night and here are some pics of her lower jaw. I'm leaving out my opinion, but those of you that are good at this age her. The pics are a straight shot at the side of her jaw.

    All 6 molars are up so it is over 2 1/2 and judging by the wear I would say it was an extremely old doe. My uneducated guess is8 1/2 or 9 1/2 years.

    Very good doe. Most likely over 5.5 and guessing 8.5 or 9.5.
