I would say it's an antler. At least that's what I thought when I first looked at it. Judging by the way his nub is deformed and the notches in his ear he may of had an accident as a fawn. Allot of times when deer get injured it affects their antler growth. He could have gotten stuck in a fence or something, who knows.

Looks like a antler, he may have a broke antler pedestal...

looks like a antler if it was just broken it should grow next year but it could be some difformity and he grow into very weird nontypical

This was my thought exactly. You might want to let him go and let him grow. He looks like he could become a nice little Non-Typical in the future.

Thanks everyone, it definetly is a buck as I said, you can see his "junk" in one picture of him. He is definetly safe for a couple years, I have already told the two other guys that hunt this property that this deer is off limit and you have to be incredibly careful when hunting for a doe. Hopefully I get a pic of him after the velvet is gone to see if it is a antler or tumor.
