Good luck man, I shot a buck this year that I wanted to have aged. A wildlife biologist at the south nampa office told me it was 4-7 years old. 4 to 7 really?, I could have narrowed it down more than that. They told me that if I wanted to know for sure I'd have to look online for a deer tooth aging kit. So good luck.

I would call the nampa F&G office and see if they could get you in touch with a biologist.

It takes about a year to get bear and lion teeth processed by the lab we use. The year time frame starts a few months after the close of the season (teeth are collected and held to send in one large batch and takes a while to get the teeth from all the various collection points - field COs, taxidermists, etc.).
I try to send out post cards to hunters when I get the data back, but at least in my case, I've fallen behind somewhat.
2007 bear data became available late last summer.
