Growing up in KY and living most of my adult life in TN these stories are very similar to my life in hunting and fishing. Started out hunting quail and rabbits with pointers and beagles. Traveled all over the south. I'd give anything to relive those days again. I'm very blessed and have wonderful memories. I miss all the dogs I've owned and hunted with along with the people I've met especially in my younger years many of them one of kind characters. I really miss the older hunters I grew up with just family men and kids who hunted hard most of them farmers or factory workers. The knowledge and know how you just don't read in books usually unless you read Babcock, Gene Hill or Gordon Macquarrie. It's Oct/Nov and I smell the autumn woods and I hear my beagles in my sleep.
