My name is Gage Hunter Griggs. I am 17 and I am a senior at Fort Payne High School.

This weekend I went hunting at Adamsburg and bagged this beautiful buck. It's spread was not wide but he had a nice, ten-point rack.

The buck was in full rut and I heard him running through the woods, chasing a doe from my tree stand.

I am from a long line of hunters. My dad, mom, PawPaw and even my grandmother enjoyed their time in the woods.

Thank you Gage for sharing the story of your hunt with us!
