Hi Gary, You are correct that all ages are targeted by default as you can see in this guide <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/targetingtypes#ages>. On the ad group level, you can target or exclude an AgeRange <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201802/AdGroupCriterionService.AgeRange> criterion as you can see in this table <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/criteria-usage>. So you have two options for the ad group level, either you target the AgeRange criterion using BiddableAdGroupCriterion <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201802/AdGroupCriterionService.BiddableAdGroupCriterion> to restrict your ad group for that age range only, or you exclude the AgeRange criterion using NegativeAdGroupCriterion <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201802/AdGroupCriterionService.NegativeAdGroupCriterion> in order for you to target all age ranges except that specific age range.
This said, if your goal is to enable/target the 35-44 age range <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/codes-formats#age-ranges> only, then I suggest to target it using BiddableAdGroupCriterion.
