My family has owned/operated farms in this county since 1889. Before that in Coryell Co.
I hunted here as a kid. We have far more game today than any time in my life. Not many people. County is <6,000 people.
Now, there are a lot of outside hunters who come here from Dallas and other cities. Some from out of State.
Like most rural areas, “A country boy can survive” hee hee hee
Have friends from my youth that hunt. Some of the families here have been friends for 120+ years.
But life might be boring if it came to that.
That’s my point. When everybody is hunting to survive there will be very little game generally. The more rural you are the better.
