We may be in the market for a new ranch purchase (1031 exchange for our place in Uvalde) and these 2 general areas keep coming up as meeting our criteria which is: 3 hr or less drive (Pflugerville area off toll road), 500 ac or more (more the better but other factors like structures, cover, etc would influence it), obviously good hunting with other game than deer (turkey, quail, dove, etc.) but primarily deer and ideally water like a good tank to go fishing. By Tilden area I think north of Freer is the absolute farthest we would go. Brownwood to Brady is the other area we are looking. I guess Cotulla area could get thrown in as well but we prefer to get away from the illegals if possible but the right place with the right size deer may sway that. Is there much illegal activity in the Tilden area?
I guess this will morph into 2 questions. First, what can you tell me about hunting either or both of these areas and a comparison to the northwest Uvalde area would be a bonus? Second any other areas that meet these criteria we are missing? Up to now it has just been searches on Lands of Texas and plugging in the trip to google maps for drive time. Thanks for the input in advance.
