If that is indeed a tine, it's Waaaaaay beyond "odd". (and kill him before it breaks off) I hunt southern Illinois, and if you don't kill him, I will
It kind of looks like it's coming off his base, but we would need more than one picture to actually tell if it's real.
That would be wild if it is a tine. I'm wondering if it's a piece of corn stalk or something similar. It's hard to tell with the tiny bit of blur, but by his left brow tine it almost looks like a piece of something sticking out in front of him. I hope it is a tine though and you get to show us a better picture of you sitting behind him.
It does look like a drop tine, I just can't believe it. It's way long and looks like it has a ninety degree bend in it. It looks the same color and density of the actual antlers...I just can't believe it based on that one pic.
