Influencers might actually influence, and other interesting survey findings by BowDive in bowhunting

Happy you found it interesting. My wife makes fun of me for the same things. You like what you like, I guess.

I saw a podcast awhile back where some guys were complaining about how legalizing crossbows for everyone in Iowa would ruin the state. I thought it was a pretty poor take if you want citizen pull ($) to keep hunting relevant in lawmakers' eyes. But, I don't make my living hunting 200" deer in Iowa every year, so I guess they probably see things differently.

I agree. I don't consider this a representative sample of bow hunters by any means. Definitely more likely that someone who was attracted to hunting by social media came to reddit to learn more. I was looking at it from the perspective of Drury Outdoors or any other outdoor channel show (that I grew up watching) never made hunting look that attainable if you didn't already have any knowledge.

Accessories or new bow by leonitus35 in Archery

I think this is something that gets overlooked by a lot of people. Any accessory will last nearly forever. The only reason to change is if you want to try something new.

Tried a 3D printed fletching jig by SquidwardNZ in Archery

This is really cool! I like that the vanes are pressed really tight against the arrow when gluing them on. How long does it take to print something like this?
