Besides being a method of survival, hunting has become a passion. Hunting can be an escape, a way to spend time with family, or even just a hobby. Millions of Americans love to hunt and continue to do so every season. However, a common issue continues to plague us. As familiar scenes unfold across public lands—with packed parking lots and unexpected encounters with fellow hunters—doubts arise. Can there truly be a place for new hunters in these already congested spaces? The frustration of trekking through seemingly remote terrain, only to find it teeming with others, is a common narrative. Even seeking permission on private land can lead to disappointment as other hunters have beaten us to it. We love getting folks and kids involved in hunting just as much as we love hunting ourselves. We enjoy seeing the parents who take their kids out with them for the first time. We sat down with this discussing because we want to see if there is a solution, or if the problem is already overgrown. Using information from studies, personal experiences, and even accounts from you guys, we want to try and answer one question: Is there a genuine need for new hunters?
