[QUOTE="oldbuck60, post: 5780345, member: 24219"] Wanted to share a little Tennesee history that collides with Western NY history- helps folks undstand the difference between where I grew up and NYC which is as far away as Pittsburgh. Sgt. Alvin York one of the Volunteer States most treasured sons had a best friend in WW I. That boy from WNY grew up in a town that shares a name with the home of stock car racing---Bristol! Corporal Murray Savage was Alvins pal. I live and hunt deer in those hills- which until recently were free of rich city folks and a great place to chase deer and turkey. I grew up coon hunting with a close uncle who also played harmonica in a band called Bristol Mountain Bluegrass. He also took me coonin and taught me to hunt still-hunt deer. I had it real good growing up in the sixties, seventies and eighties- spoiled, carefree and pretty much either hunting or trying to distract myself until something opened- bunny, pheasant, fox, deer, or turkey. The photo is me on November 18. just to get this post back to hunting! [/QUOTE]
