It is really a personal preference thing. Some guys like to repair any broken tines on something they kill, others prefer to leave them the way they died. Honestly makes no difference.
I leave them just the way they were. I shot a 6X6 Elk that had about 8" broke off 1 tine. He still scored over 300 and hangs on my wall just like he was the day he hit the ground.
