Re: Rifle / Bowhunter Trends
Walksalot, I too have noticed the trend of attendance at 3D shoots being down this year...well for the last couple years actually. there has been much discussion about this at the last few shoots we have been to and the general consensus is that the price of gas has a whole lot to do with this. If you haul your trailer you generally guzzle a whole lot more .98 cent gas...or you end up in a hotel at $70 a night. through no fault of their own the shoots are getting too expensive for people to travel to more than a select few each year. At least the numbers above show a positive trend for one segment of the archery population in this province.
Keep checking off those boxes folks!!
