I was trying to post an audio version for you which is guaranteed to be even more over the top but I am having a tech breakdown and my 20 year old visiting genius has gone to Amsterdam for a week. So, you have been spared that audio rant.

Tally ho.

Not too sure about a deer hunt on Ft Knox this fall. The tags are for an antlered deer with a minimum spread of 12 inches or for a non-antlered. My last antlered deer was a non-typical with one side partially developed and the other almost non-existent. The last deer was a nice healthy doe and was delicious.

Peabody Coal has some reclaimed open pit mining land in Western Kentucky they turned over to the Kentucky National Guard for training that has excellent deer hunting. Since I still have some connections in the guard it looks like that is where son, son-in-law and I are heading this fall.

One of our security guards in the building I work at makes his own summer sausage and always has a plate nearby. If you sort of loiter while signing in for work you get samples. This past week he had some with a little extra garlic, didn't have to worry about the vampires coming too close. A couple of weeks ago it was smoked with fresh green apple wood. Excellent!

The posts from the non-hunters here are enlightening. At least they are not the venom we see from the likes of PETA.
