[QUOTE="murphranch, post: 3475584, member: 45833"] I can't remember where i got this set of plastic jaws that range from 1 1/2 to 8 1/2 years old. I've had them a long time and often check jaw bones of deer my family have taken. IMO I believe deers teeth would wear differently from diet and location. I can see high desert deer teeth wearing faster from eating more roughage and forbs than one from the midwest eating alfalfa and wheat. Ive had a few bucks on camera for a known number of years and when they were shot this set of jaws was accurate to the age i knew the deer to be. Live animal evaluation and aging can be a tough thing. Especially if you only have so much time to figure it out. If you are not certain what age a buck is and only have a second or 2 go ahead and pass on the shot. If you pass it lives another day or year. Once it's dead it's a dead peckerhead and it's not coming back to life.[ATTACH=full]183891[/ATTACH] Sent from my LG-H700 using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
