really fun to get those results.  that's why we do it for deer.  I didn't do one of my doe taken last year but it was probably around 11 or 12.  definitely 8.5+ yrs old.  I know a couple guys from other co-ops around here that shot doe that came back at 15 and 20 years old!  for a deer that seems crazy to me.  it's more commonly done with bear by state wildlife agencies though.
