Women hunters number around 3 million in U.S.

NBC4i.com reports the number of women hunters increasing in Ohio, as well as the U.S. “We actually sold roughly 30,000 licenses to female hunters in 2015, which compares to just over 24,000 in 2011,” said Jamey Emmert, with Ohio Department of Natural Resources.

The National Shooting Sports Foundation and the National Sporting Goods Association estimate more than 3 million female hunters exist in the U.S. Since 2000, hunting participation by females has also risen dramatically in Texas, according to the Dallas Morning News.
