I think it was well-fed deer based on the antler thickness compared to skull size. Certainly had a good mineral intake. It would have been a nice 8 pointer if the left tine didn't break off and some of the other points were allowed to develop.

If you're going to keep it, submerge it for a couple of hours in a weak bleach solution. Not only will it look better you will kill all the nasty crap living inside.

You can buy a "deer cap mount" and put it up make it look nicer:
