Good Deer Leases will be west of Austin. Driftwood, Dripping Springs, Brady, Llano, anywhere in the hill country basically. Most leases run 2-6 grand per rifle on anywhere from 200-several thousand acres and prices depend on what hunts are available and amenities. Bird hunting is best east of 35 and real good in Creedmoor or South 183. Turkey west of Austin in the hill country or South all the way to Luling and further south. Hogs are all over the place and varmints too.
TPWD does an annual public hunts drawing on public lands and state parks. I've been on several of these and they are great!
If you're looking for resources to help in your search, try craigslist, statesman classifieds, leasehunter.com, or TPWD website has a link set up to help outdoorsman network with farmers/ranchers.
Good Luck.

I was trying to think of where my BIL hunts and luckily ATX Homeboy answered it for me...It's Brady, and he always comes back with a deer or two and often a boar. He has a friend who has property out there and they hunt on it.

The Texas Capitol, there you can find any type of animal you like. Beware they might bite, they are called senators and lobbyist
The best hunting near Austin is probably west and south of San Antonio
