With respect to flex slots, Savvy Hunter is the worst card in the deck by a country mile and can be cut for anything.
With respect to splashes, Red gives you access to things like Mayhem Devil for more removal and Korvold, Fae-Cursed King for additional reach and card draw. You don't necessarily need the card draw but the removal from the Devil is top notch. It effectively mows down anything that stands in its way.
With respect to lifegain, if Cat + Oven isn't enough for you I highly recommend either Grim Feast (read the Oracle text, not the printed text, it affects "each" opponent) or Urborg, Tomb of Yawgmoth + Roots of Life (read the Oracle text, not the printed text, it affects "each" opponent).

Hey team, wanted to share another Golgari deck that I've been playing that's based off of the Standard Jund Sacrifice deck. This is a food-based sacrifice deck that functions around the synergies between Gilded Goose, Cauldron Familiar, Witch's Oven and Trail of Crumbs. Together these cards provide you with all of the cards and sacrifice triggers that you could ever need for things like Deathreap Ritual, Mazirek, Kraul Death Priest and Dictate of Erebos which allows them to quickly take over the game. Moreover, the deck can lean on curves like Sakura-Tribe Elder into Journey to Eternity for some extremely quick ramp and Deathreap Ritual + multiple Witch's Ovens + Cauldron Familiar ensures that you're drawing 3-4 cards every circuit.
In case anyone is wondering "why so few instants/sorceries?" remember that this deck is built around Trail of Crumbs which only snags permanents. That's why your removal should be things like Murderous Rider, Wicked Wolf, Grave Pact, Massacre Girl and Dictate of Erebos as opposed to Assassin's Trophy.
With respect to the manabase, there's no harm or foul in playing things like Golgari Rot Farm, Fabled Passage, Myriad Landscape, Evolving Wilds, Golgari Guildgate, Grim Backwoods, etc. It doesn't have to be fancy.
