I wonder if he has heard of a thing called a hunting lease? Texans don’t own vacation homes, we own the equivalent of small states that we can go shoot small furry and feathery things on.
My younger brother owns 5500 acres with another guy in which they lease most of it for exactly that.
Deer or feral hogs.... maybe a rifle is appropriate. But most of what I've eaten in the last 2 months has come from the blade of a 4" Japanese folded steel paring knife. Firearms are for emergencies.
