    Introduction and Background

    This report presents the results of the bimonthly HunterSurvey.com© and ShooterSurvey.com© online consumer panel survey. This panel composed of hunters and shooters across the U.S. who volunteer to participate, tracks hunter and shooter participation and expenditures.

    All results presented in this report are from respondents who reported to HunterSurvey.com© and ShooterSurvey.com© that they purchased bowhunting/archery equipment and/or crossbows in 2014. 2013 data are presented as a comparison. For the purposes of this report “bow” indicates longbow, recurve or compound bow. Crossbow data are presented as a separate category. Crossbows are not included in the bowhunting/archery section of the HunterSurvey, but have been included in this report in separate tables.

    To overcome biases common to online surveys, the survey respondents are weighted to reflect the true population of U.S. hunters and shooters. The weighting process is conducted dynamically with each survey to reflect the general hunting and shooting population as accurately as possible. We are always improving the process of our analytical procedures and sampling weights to better represent sportsmen nationwide.

    A note about statistical reliability: The tables in this report are based on responses from a nationwide sample of hunters and shooters who complete our surveys. As a result, the reported percentages in the tables are subject to sampling variability, often called the “margin of error”. This is typically presented as +/- some percentage to indicate the range of values that includes the true percentage in the total population of all hunters and shooters. Because the margin of error is determined by the reported percentage and the size of the sample on which it is based, the margin of error will be different for each table in the report. For that reason, we include “N=” at the bottom of each table to denote the sample size on which the table is based and as a general indication of statistical reliability.

    As a general rule, results based on a sample with fewer than thirty respondents should be viewed with caution because the margin of error is likely to be sufficiently large that there are no real differences between the percentages in most categories in the table. This is mostly likely to occur with the monthly estimates where the sample sizes for some purchases are small. For tables with N=100, the margin of error is no worse than +/-9.8%. For tables with N=500, the margin of error is no worse than +/-4.4%. For tables with N=2,000, the margin of error is no worse than +/-2.2%.

    Size of the Bow and Crossbow Market

    The amounts spent by equipment type are estimated in the tables below. These estimates are derived from data reported by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service as part of its 2011 National Survey of Fishing, Hunting and Wildlife-Associated Recreation (National Survey) double checked and adjusted with data from Southwick Associates’ proprietary HunterSurvey/ShooterSurvey market research services.

    The National Survey reports expenditures made for the primary purpose of hunting. Efforts are made to exclude purchases that would have been made even if the hunter could not go hunting.
