Deer with broken leg?

Hey guys this is a pic from a couple of years ago but I always wondered if something was wrong with his leg or if the picture just looks like it. So, what do you think?

I vote broken leg or growth of sometype

Definitely some type of injury but it's tough to tell if it's broke or not. Got any other pics of him?

whole shoulder area looks traumatized. Whatever happened, judging by the condition of the antlers, happened after antler development

Looks like some damage to the hind quarters to if you look hard. Hard to tell from that view. Definately a problem with the front leg. Possibly hit by a car.

He definitely has some issues on that side. Nice buck nonetheless.

Definitely looks cut! May have even cut a ligament or a tendon. Notice how his back is hunched up? He's struggling while carrying it!!

Thats kind of what I thought too (the whole car thing), he is a little over a mile from the nearest road but I dont doubt that is what happened. This is the only photo of this buck I ever got though so I dont know for sure.
