China Milu Deer
No. But this is a first. Farmers are suffering crop damage. At some point some type of population control will be neccesary.- Zim

China Milu Deer
I really don’t think so. The species reintroduction results are being recognized as the most successful on the planet. If they continue to multiply at the same rate they have been, the population should exceed 100k by 2030.- Zim

China Milu Deer
Forky, Yes they have an iron rice bowl pension system, but welfare, food stamps, unemployment are rare to non-existent. And they certainly don’t have communes nor land redistribution any longer. Those are in the distant 1976 past. Thus, communism is long gone there.- Zim

China Milu Deer
Again, I certainly don’t defend their government. Just pointing out a fact about its totalitarianist political system. It’s only communist in name (CCP), not in policy.- Zim

No that was not me. I did not comment about any freedoms, and certainly don’t defend their actions. Just pointing out a fact about their totalitarianist political system.- Zim

I don’t hunt them. I’m just telling you what my cousin described. I just know some phrases. But wife is an English teacher, so she is my translator.- Zim

China Milu Deer
Map drawn up in the early 70’s. I think most people don’t know how the real world works, because they haven’t been there. I have. Many times over ten years. But did see an interesting news article last week trying to educate viewers on terminology & labels. The term China and Chinese people...- Zim

China Milu Deer
Based on what I’ve gathered, China doesn’t even have a F&G Dept yet. I have a cousin in Chengdu who belongs to their city archery club. He says the only hunting the club members do is for wild hogs in the mountains. It is not legal, but some members go anyway. I’ll be finding out more now that...- Zim

China Milu Deer
I have a new dream hunt. Although there is not yet a season, Milu deer repopulation in China has been an outstanding wildlife success story. From zero to 12,000 in 40 years. I just retired and the wife and I will live in our Sichuan home 4 months/year, Indiana home 8 months/year. Hoping an...- Zim

Gobble gobble Spring Turkey 2025
Expecting a trifecta this year as it’s the first time I ever hit my two top public properties in the Illinois lottery. Plus my local Indiana public which is loaded with birds. I have had all three of these scouted out for years. But it will be a while because all my tags are in May. I’m busy...- Zim

2025-26 Season plans?
I think I also retired from doing live hunt threads. The only one I ever did, last year, was impossible with a full time job. Going forward just want to hunt & take naps. It’s a nice feeling to have 450 points over 8 states saved up for retirement. Don’t need to worry as much if I draw...- Zim

2025-26 Season plans?
Believe it or not, I never researched what the average person needs to retire. I just worked long, saved in 401k and paid off our houses. To my surprise, I ran my numbers for the first time last week and we are actually above average by quite a bit. On top of this our expenses will be well...- Zim

Social security by the numbers
Since my DOGE layoff last month, the wife and I are now discussing the option of me retiring and living half time in China, half time in US. I'll be full age next year. I don't have a pension, but both our homes are paid off, and the cost of living while there is dirt cheap, like 20% of cost in...- Zim

2025-26 Season plans?
I'm losing interest with each year that passes. Quit 3 states already (OR, NH & WY sheep/moose). But I've got too many points everywhere else to exit. I loved my job and worked hard at it. The two bums ahead of me egregiously short cut their job duties. Both had less tenure and were younger...- Zim

2025-26 Season plans?
At 65, first time in my life unemployed due to random DOGE federal job cuts. So have no idea what to do. Got like 450 points over 8 states. If someone had just done one audit of our program, I’d still have a job. The RIF is most definitely NOT based on merit. HQ simply cut us two oldest.- Zim

Utah Paunsagunt Archery Deer
Finally got time to write up a conclusion to my Utah Pauns hunt. There were several reasons for the long delay. First of all, I am not retired. I still work full time. For me to take off six weeks for this hunt and subsequent NP vacation with the wife, I had an enormous amount of work to make-up... -
Utah Paunsagunt Archery Deer
Will summarize soon. Wife flew out and got my hands chock full Vegas, Big Ditch, Zion, now Bryce. And must visit grandkids & niece in Fort Collins Sun/Mon. Don’t even have 5 minutes free. I’m exhausted. -
Utah Paunsagunt Archery Deer
Blood is boiling due to a real authentic retard tool with a crap tag in his pocket. A pathetic hunter so desperate he sees fit following around an Indiana license plate to find deer. Really???
