I've hunted with Zim PH's and found them to be honest and hard working guys...just trying to get by like you and I. They charged reasonable prices...about $300/day, and much of that went to the concession owners. These guys have had a lot of shit come down on them, and many lost what generations of their families had built.

I do have sympathy for them...and for the Aussie outfitters, too. It is getting harder to make a buck these days! There is no simple answer to your predicament, or his.

There are just too damned many of us humans nowadays. If you lived here in Nevada all your life and hunted and fished here for all that time, you would know from where I speak.

When I was a kid in the 50's there were 100,000 people in the entire State, Reno and Las Vegas included...it was paradise for a young hunter! Now, there are 2.7 million, and we are the fastest growing State in the US. With the population growth and the gold mining explosion, our hunting has gone right down the crapper. I have NOT even drawn a single deer tag here in my native State in three years! Prices to even apply are skyrocketing, as well.

Just to apply for our various sheep hunts, deer hunt, elk hunt, mountain goat hunt, and pronghorn hunt costs around $800.00...for a RESIDENT! If you don't get drawn for the various tags, the fucking Department of Wildlife keeps about $200.00 of your money to buy a stamp and mail back your refund.

Watch your Government hacks like a hawk, my Aussie friends! I'd hate to see the same things happen to your wonderful land. Remember that the Zim guys are just trying to feed their families, however.
