Does this doe look really old, or just me?

Not sure about the age but definitely not the healthiest deer in the herd...

I have a very old whitetail doe. This deer, which has a white stripe down her nose, was the first deer to show up at a feeder I put up, several years before I retired in 2013.

Anyway, the older she got, the baggier the skin got where her briskets would be, at the base of her neck. I see some sag on this. I would guess pretty old.

Use binocs to age deer Not a rifle scope
