[QUOTE="Gatorgrizz27, post: 761344, member: 64071"] Aspenbugles comments about both MT and CO mirrors my experience from moving to Austin TX this year. Despite the number of people that hunt here, there is almost no public land, and leases are out of my price range. The flip side to it is many people have leases, so if you make the right connections you can get to hunt some great places for free or trading services. Texas as a whole has many more laws and restrictions than I expected with its image of being an extremely free state and doing whatever you want. For example a CHL here does not allow you to carry weapons besides a handgun, and there is no open carry yet, though they are working on it. Obviously Austin is much more liberal than other areas of the state, but I chose to move here because I needed a large customer base for my motorcycle business, and I prefer the less "big city feel" compared to places like Houston and DFW. There are a lot of Californians moving here which is changing the feel of things for the worse IMO, things are becoming more overdeveloped and yuppified, and it is getting too expensive for many of the people and businesses that have been here for awhile to stay where they are. It is still a great city and state, and if I am successful here and able to purchase a decent sized piece of land outside the city, I will have few complaints besides the heat. [/QUOTE]
