Don’t think it matters. He’s unbranched on one beam

It's called an injury-induced antler. Initial cause is the result of some sort of injury (usually fighting, but can be something else) where antler pedicle cells become displaced and heal in a different location. Exact same phenomenon as 'unicorn' deer (3rd pedicle deer), just located in a spot other than between the antlers. Back in the day, researchers were able to successfully grow antlers from various parts of the body, including legs.

That's one for the wall.

I believe it’s growing from there and the reason the velvet never came off

Yes. I killed a buck with one of those a fee years ago. I'll post a link in a few minutes.

I had one here at the house last year that had a 3rd antler (spike) sticking straight out of the middle of his forehead. It was only a couple inches long. I did not shoot him in hopes that he would keep growing it and get bigger this year. I have not seen him at all this year!!!

That one the OP posted is really cool!!!!!

It looks like the antler got split, one grew up and the other grew down his skull to his jaw, exited and grew up. Pretty crazy!

[Bowtech38]

Thats crazy

I feel like he should be taken out to ease his pain
But hey !!
He may be happy just to be alive
