my best guess would be going under a wire fence and not quite ducking its head down low enough, but then again it could of went to the barber and just is trying out a new look.
On the under hand, I would have to say thats a yearling buck that has shed. I thought that right away in the first pic, because body and head just look like it is a buck and it does look like there are some fluffed up darker hair patches on its head where its small antlers had been or it could just be a button buck, but a doe would have a rounded top of its head, not flat.

i second the thought on the deer being a buck...i noticed how dark the tarsal glands are and then saw what was already mentioned (what looks like a spot where his horns were)
Another thing that i thought of was it could of happened from a fight. If it is a buck, it wouldn't be anything for a buck to rub his horns against his face.

It does look like a Yearling Buck with the slightly rasied knubs...my guess is it either has the Mange or could it have rub the hair off from sticking its head inside a feeder or possibly a fence with the square shaped openings and rub the hair off?
You don't have one of those Antler Traps set up where You take some fencing and shape it in a V-shape and put corn in the center in hopes of the Bucks snagging and loosing their Antlers in it to find?...just an after-thought
