I understand that, and I'm not out for a meat haul. Just saying that ranchers/property owners use to supplement income with hunters. Now, with the Eagleford Shale play, not so much. I would rather drive 2.5 hours to my place in MS every weekend, then drive 8 hours twice or three times a year for Texas. To each his own, but we have our little slice of heaven. Tons of deer, lots of turkey and we are lucky enough to own a house there. Our lease is $1200/yr and club pays for food plots. Sure we put in our work, and we enjoy it. Only thing I don't like is paying for an out of state license when I own a home there. But I will get over that!
