We're guessing he was between 3.5-5.5. I never liked the visual molar wear, it's too generic and frankly too easy to twist an extra year up or down. Just wondering if anyone here has used cementum annuli aging before and how accurate you thought it was? I have no history with my buck so...

dbHunterNY Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Experts... what are we looking at? When taking the picture of the top take a picture from above more that angle distorts the view of wear. 4th tooth back is first molar and oldest tooth in deer to start being an adult deer. Look at tongue/lingual side not cheek/buccal side. it seems like dark middle/dentine isnt wider than white edge/enamel. Minimal wear and dentine showing on premolars before that tooth. By the time you get back to further to the 6th tooth back theres barely any dentine showing on Crest of the tooth. Also at 3.5 and sometimes slightly at 2.5 you have wear the shows crescent shaped dentine on very last cusp on the last tooth. This one has none. I'd say 2.5 all day. If it was 1.5 the 3rd tooth back would have 3 cusps or be pretty white eith barely any staining compared to 4th tooth and farther back.Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbHunterNY Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 He was aged at 4.5. i was pretty sure he was 3.5, with the slight possibility of being 4.5.Too me he looked like 4.5 from jawbone and then scrolling farther down with the buck on the ground. Nice deer.Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
