Are you a die-hard hunter who has always wanted to know the age of the deer you have harvested? Are you interested in improving the age structure and overall health of your deer herd through Quality Deer Management? If so, the DEER AGE tool is for you.
Created with input from experts at the Quality Deer Management Association (QDMA), the DEER AGE TOOL merges science with technology and will guide you systematically through the process of aging your deer by examination of tooth eruption and wear patterns from known-age deer. Using your iPhones unique pinch/zoom feature, you can compare these photos to the teeth from your deer while still in the field.
The DEER AGE TOOL is also a resource for gaining insight on another deer aging technique known as cementum annuli, which is considered the most accurate aging method for deer 3.5 years of age and older. If you wish to be an informed hunter and a responsible wildlife manager, this is a resource that every deer hunter should have! A portion of all proceeds goes to the QDMA to help ensure a high-quality and sustainable future for white-tailed deer and white-tailed deer hunting.
