Why not just go west? Montana has lots of open space. North Dakota, Wyoming....

Eastern Oklahoma, Southern Missouri, or Arkansas or somewhere in that general area would get my vote. Most of its wooded, fairly mountainous, Im not a fan of flat land and no trees. Lots of hunting and fishing opportunities, deer, turkey, duck, pheasant, squirrel, hog, coon, you name it, and lots of lakes and rivers to fish, all in a fairly temperate climate with bearable summers and winters.

Cant speak for the other areas, but I grew up in SE Oklahoma, and there are some dang good people down there. Grew up running around the mountains and huntin most things that moved
