Very strange indeed.....I would say #1 take it out of the herd in case it is genetic.....#2 It would be a very interesting conversation piece on your wall. Both reasons say take it out.

It's only a 1.5 year old with an injury to his antler when it was soft and growing. I wouldn't take him out, next year he'll be normal and bigger.

I would leave him as well. Seems to me like an injury that occured during antler growth. Next year he should be back to normal IMO.

Just by looking at the picture I'd say his rack was a result of an injury...

That being said, shoot or let him go...it's up to you.

Let him walk.
He has potential to be really nice in a year or two.
If it is genetics it will be there next year as well.
