Both Antlers torn from head

Last November we had a smaller buck get trashed by a much larger buck, both antlers were ripped from his skull, I let him heal through the winter just to see what would happen but I thought he would make the trip to the freezer in a month or so. Suprisingly he has regrown full but odd bases, now we have a wait and see, the bases are 2 1/2" dia. but it looks like the beam will grow out of about half of it.
