Name: Cary Brown(MMKProstaff)
Date of Kill: 01/08/09
Location: East central Iowa
Kill Type: Whitetail
Season: Iowa Late Muzzleloader

 My 08-09 season started off well when I harvested a nice mature 11 point on my second night in the stand.  The next 2 months I pretty much just filmed for the mmk prostaff team and worked on getting some does harvested for my jerky maker!!   This was my first year for late muzzleloader in Iowa.  I am a die-hard shotgun hunter so I tagged 3 does shotgun season and got ready for my first Iowa  late muzzleloader hunts.  Between east cenral Iowa and southeast Iowa I hunted hard, missing a easy 60 yard shot in southeast Iowa on a real nice 10 pointer, watching him slowly look around and run away, I thought this was my last chance at a real monster.
  On Jan 7th I came home from southeast Iowa after 1 1/2 weeks of hunting there, feeling defeated. On the morning of the 8th I hunted close to home in one of my honey holes with Eric Ludtke , friend and co-creator of mmk.  Eric seen 25 does that morning missing a running shot by bow on a fat doe, while I seen 2 does from my stand.  We knew the deer must be bunched up due to cold and ice and set a plan for the evening hunt.  Eric,myself and ”fat guys camp ” hunter Tony Pauly set out to harvest something that night. Eric set-up deep in the woods while Tony and I set-up just off the corn.About a half hour before dark the fields came alive with deer and all were heading my way thankfully.  With about 10 minutes of light left I spotted a nice buck heading my direction and I knew if I waited for him I would not have legal light left, so I made the decision to get up and go to him.  Tony, seeing me moving along the fence and sticking out with my orange vest on,seen the same buck and picked up his binoculars just in time to see me make a 125 yard shot and drop this big boy in his tracks.When we walked up on him he was a lot bigger than I thought.He is my best buck to date .               Remember hunters, it is never over till its over!
