....I hope you realize how good you've got it. The Hill Country is beautiful (I now live there), but it's rough and rocky and it isn't good for much other than deer hunting; hunting lease fees keep a lot of landowners going. I hunted Hill Country deer for better than 40 years, so my experience cannot be denied, either. Venison may be cheaper for you than beef, but it sounds like you're among the fortunate few.....
