Wildlife Biologist did a tooth wear estimation on him. There are not many deer taken this big, body and age wise from the area that I hunt in MA

As far as judging deer, it just takes lots of practice...I've watched several deer judging videos over and over. This includes judging both rack size and age. It becomes very important (and potentially expensive) if you hunt in places that set minimums for one or both.
