A Thanksgiving hunt last season with his dad and granddaddy produced this Franklin County buck for Jacob Markiton, of Savannah.

This Stephens County buck was only seen once on camera in three years before Paul Batchelor got the double drop-tine trophy on Oct. 17 last year.

Congratulations to veteran Wally Holcomb on his 8-point buck harvested on Veteran’s Day! Wally, 90, continues to enjoy hunting in Hancock County.
