I cant help but noitce the lack of current country albums on vinyl. Why is this? Don't audiophiles like country music?

Vinyl is a niche market. Labels will only release on vinyl if they think they can sell enough to make a profit.

Country music fans drink too much and break all their stylus', so now they just listen to dem dare new-fangled ceedee's.
