William C. Holm, BH publication owner and editor of World Outdoors.Com, and free time in the world. We issued a report today entitled "Recent trends in survival," which highlights some of the major changes in product development, buyer preferences for camping and survival products gear, and other trends of survival.
In issuing this report, Mr. Holm noted that there Several trends converged in the last year, that is, price-comparison shopping and more unisex product design.
Some of the other trends The effect was:
1) Although there has been a slight increase from last year at the camp (5.34%) and hiking (8.5%), the number of people actively hunting has decreased by 1.1%.
2) Trail running, hiking, wildlife viewing and increased by 15.2%, 18.5% and 5.0% respectively.
3) While there has been a spike in outdoor camping, RV camping in particular, most campers prefer field relatively close to home.
4) The Northwest Pacific (18.9%) and the Upper Midwest (16.9%) are most campers compared with the rest of the United States.
Hunting and Bow-hunting-trends
Given that there has been a decrease in the number of hunters and one reported to increase the number of firearms purchased this year, including pistols, it is speculated that most handguns are purchased for self defense. When considered together with the reports that manufacturers munitions are working day and night to keep up with sales orders, we have concluded that people are storing these products for future use. "This has caused some concern among outside groups and hunting organizations, "said the editor.
According to the NSGA, hunting and firearms showed the greatest percentage increase between equipment purchases in 2007. Sales of hunting equipment and firearms increased 16% to $ 4.6 billion $ 3.9 billion in 2007.
Hunting with bows and crossbows purchase have seen a dramatic increase in the last three years. One reason for this has been shot arc in the National Schools. Young and old alike seem drawn to this sport, especially due to the unique skills involved, advances in design technology arc, the relative ease of obtaining a hunting license, archery, and camaraderie particular game hunting in the forest.
Demographics-
The NSGA also found that women represent 12% of all Bowhunters in the United States. About 786,000 women were bow hunting more than once in the last year. The average age for women is 37.9 Bowhunters. In fact, Current data suggest that women are quickly join with men in basic survival activities namely, backpack, camping, hunting, hiking and nature. More and more women are buying survival gear, as "take to the woods" in large quantities. The growth of the bow (Becoming an Outdoor Woman) program in the United States may be one of the factors contributing to the increase in the number of women in the air free.
The average age of a hunter of women was 30.4 years and the average age of a hunter of men was 45.7 years old. However, young people (ages 6-17 years) for the most part, continue to show a decreased appetite for outdoor activities like camping, backpacks, and hiking.
Recent trends sales-
(Cut Retail Prices)
In view of the recession, buyers have become buyers of negotiation. This means that instead of buying a premium brand name bag, sleeping bag or tent, outdoor enthusiasts will be making Big Box retail stores or website for buying equipment. The average price of a pack is $ 30.00, a sleeping bag is $ 39.00, and 3 – the average person tent purchased for about of $ 101.00. In addition, renowned retailers advertising can overcome large amounts of stock, see more products, and maintain good customer relations, due to its highly developed business processes. A report by Internet Retailer A indicates that the more sophisticated websites with quick order processing and loading of pages garnered more sales than slower and less sophisticated web sites. Therefore, Wal-Mart, Amazon, Sears, Target, Kmart and outperform smaller specialized sites where camping is selling products.
Even specialized sites are reducing prices items of equipment for survival in the face frugal shoppers.
For example, Sierra Trading Post has cut prices on some products by 50%, Cabelas has reduced prices on some items by 70% to 20%, The Mountain Sports 20 to 40%, and the mountain side has reduced from 20 to 70% Altrec 15%, and Gander Mountain offers 40% discount on some items. Note that Gander Mountain is the promotion of more than 3,000 firearms for sale on its website.
