According to a recently-released report on the LTH effort, 4,685 potential new hunters attended in-person events between 2017 and 2022. Counting workshops, webinars, online seminars, individual mentored hunts, group events, podcasts and a host of social media interaction, the program revealed that it had more than 1.3 million contacts during the 5-year period.
