I initially thought he had a drop tine but my buddy said it looks like the main beam grew downward? After looking at the pics and videos a gazillion times, I think he may be right. He also appears to have an injured left hip or leg. Lastly, the one day he's on camera was the one day I couldn't get off work!!

You nailed it gigger14. Injury to left rear leg caused right antler to grow abnormally. IF the leg heals, the abnormality may not be repeated. But to me, that injury looks like it may affect his locomotion in the future.
 
Thanks guys. What stinks for me is, I'm pretty sure I have him on camera today and it looks like his entire right side is about gone! It appears he has the same limp in his walk. What do y'all think?

Well, I finally have a front view of him in daylight but it only last a few seconds!!!!
I still can't tell which way his antlers are growing on his right side.
Also, did the camera scare him off because I've never had that happen. Not to mention, he just walked right past a 2 man stand probably 30 yards behind him to the left of the screen!
