ISO North Texas Lease

I am looking for a lease within 2-2.5 hours from Melissa, preferably to the W, NW, N, NE, E of Melissa. Ideally staying north of 380. I'm not looking for a big place.

I have six kids, three are two or younger and one of them has some special needs. I don't have the time anymore to get down to my place in Sonora as often as I'd like and with sports and my wife needing a break on the weekends I need a place close enough for quick trips but also a place to take my kids/family without it being a 5.5hr drive, or 7hr drive with the kids.

My oldest kids love going to the ranch in Sonora but being gone 2.5 days is a lot on my wife with the three babies. I'm looking for a place my kids can get in the woods, hunt, explore and just be kids.

2 Hunters: 1k-2.5k max per spot.
Family allowed (shoot off paid hunters allotment)
Bow and Rifle (kids)
Water & elec. not necessary. Place to pitch a tent would be fine.
Deer and Pigs
Annual w/year round access.

I'll feed, won't rut up the place and will leave it better than I found it.

If you know of a place, I'd sure appreciate you passing the info along. Thank you.

you're close enough to Oklahoma

bigger deer and cheaper …. try that route if you can't find anything here in tX

I’m not opposed to OK, especially if in a bear county but, with the NR license prices the cost can get up there pretty quick with a few of my kids hunting.
