The 2022 National Survey on Angling, Hunting, and Wildlife Watching reveals that approximately 5% of Americans hunt, while 16% participate in target shooting, with around 49 million Americans engaging in target shooting. A surprising finding is that more anglers participate in target shooting than hunters.
