There are worse places to live than Texas[
]. I grew up in East Texas. Plenty of white tail deer, game birds, and...oh yeah, the fishing is awesome! You could use a bow for alligator gar if you wanted. Some areas of the state (closer to Houston or more south) can get you into great freshwater and saltwater fishing. I didn't know anyone growing up who raised deer but there were a few ostrich and emu farms out where I lived. I'm pretty sure they were raised for their meat. Found some similar farms in Salmon, Idaho years ago and got some ground emu and ostrich "steaks." Pretty delicious just extremely lean.
