The picture does this buck no justice!
Best Rack I have ever laid my hands on.
Glad to be a part of the story of this buck but wish it were on my wall instead!
Here is the story from JAY:
“This story starts back in July when we got pics of a huge droptine buck that was affectionly named by Audrey Boos “Cookie Monster”.. The name stuck!
We got all kinds of pictures of him on the trophy Rock thru the summer and then pics of him on scrapes and pinch points thru the rut, BUT never laid eyes on him thru the whole season, THAT is until last week when he broke my heart skirting the field I was setting in to leave me thinking I would never see him again!
Then yesterday after hunting him for almost 3 mos he appeared again, this time bumping does and AGAIN skirting the food plot I was watching to leave me breathless at 55yds.
This morning the wind was right so Tammi and I popped into our blind, many deer were seen but no sign of CM, however a 8:30 we did see a really big 11 pointer chasing a doe in the timber above us, of course all we could do was hoppe he would chase her by us and he DID NOT!
With only a few days left I decided to get aggresive and move the blind to where I might be able to get a shot if the big Droptine again showed and skirted the field. The blind was moved and brushed in. We were set!
2:00 we are back in the blind and within minutes deer are aproaching the field and it seems our “same day set” was perfect, WE DIDN’T KNOW JUST HOW PERFECT IT WAS!
4:10 And the big 11 from the morning is chasing a doe across the field some 300yds straight to us! I grab the camera, Tammi grabs here bow and we wait, soon the buck has bumped the doe to within 17yds, Tammi heart pounds him with the Rage head and the buck goes down in 50yds. I am excited knowing that Tammi has just5 killed the biggest deer of her life! After we do all the needed “TV” stuff I jokedly say “now the Cookie Monster needs to coime in” Ya right!!!! Well I about fell off my stool when 30 minutes later we look up and behind a doe comes CM!!! He is very cautious and again is skirting the field scent checking the does feeding, however the AM move of the blind was a lucky choice. As the buck turned to nervously leave I settled the pin on him at 37yds and OMG what a feeling to see that arrow bury behind the shoulder of the buck I had been dreaming about all summer! It was an unbelievable moment for both of us, Im not too proud to say there were some excited tears in that Double Bull Blind!
After the recoveries and all the photos and scoring sessions we are still pinching ourselves. We know we are so lucky to have experienced ahunt that is surely a ONCE in a lifetime experience!!!
Tammis 11 pointer had a 23 2/8 inside spread, 26 6/8 beams and scored 180 2/8
“Cookie Monster” had a brow and a drop broke and still grossed 193 6/8″
That is a good looking young buck.
Sure would be fun to follow a buck of this caliber as he matures.
Sure is a nice buck that any hunter would be happy with.
Glad to see he was taken before he may have died from the infection
Congrats
What do you mean, he is the greatest big brother I’m sure he will have no issues just letting me hunt there once dont you think? I was hoping for an early xmas present from him
I think it is not meant to be so I texted him to let him know I’ll take care of the situation on Monday I will let you know how that conversation goes
The one and only Lets just say I am sure it walked right by his stand again… Cant wait to see the pics of him again
Lip, Lets just say the luck isnt going my way this year, havent seen a shooter while hunting. I did see a “Hit List” buck this morning on my way to work, Lets just say he has only been seen twice on camera while no “hunter” was in there stand
I’m going to take a stab in the dark and say it was my BROTHER who has a horseshoe… Iv’e seen the photos and it is a great buck with lots of character cant wait to hear the whole story
