Texas is an open carry state. I have no problem with open carry. But tactically, concealed seems better to me. Am I wrong?

I’m with you. Concealed carry is a better strategic choice. Open carry is for convenience or making a political statement.

To each his own. Iprefer concealed for several reasons.

Primarily:
Tactical surprise is a major advantage.

I have no statistics on this, but I imagine that open carry may act as a deterrent to the “impusive” criminal. It I’ll mean nothing to a nut job.
