Good for you. . .I also felt it was time to move my boys to a better location to raise a family, so 3 years ago I moved to a small Austin suberb. LA was home for me but it's not what it used to be. Unlike the west almost every inch of this state is owned by someone. It won't take you long to find access, a Deer lease, in your area. The white tail and pig hunting around San Antonio is great. Plan to spend a couple K bucks a year. I got a great deal through a friend, 300 acres in hill country for $1500 I also get to bring both my boys and fill as many tags as we can. He only asks us to use some common sense and let the little ones grow a bit. Good luck . . . .
