At first I tried to rationalize that this buck got nailed in the eyesocket by another buck, and what we are looking at is the remnants of another buck's antler and a portion of it's skull. Don't think so...
I went round and round dreaming up a theroy of how this buck wound up this way. Then it dawned on me... that's not a broken off antler and a hunk of skull hanging out of his eye. It's a freak droptine, even though I know that the "injured in a fight" theroy is alot more entertaining to think about.
That green gack oozing out of his eye can't have been doing him any good.
 
Some guy has pics of the buck the year before it was killed still in velvet. It is definitely a 3rd horn. Pretty cool.
 
That is some picture and a cool trophy. Although, aren't you just a little chagrined about picking on the handicapped deer that can't see you coming?!
