I guess you have to spend your bucks where you like.

Many that I have watched come back to shoot but as young adults who are not as free with their money as us old farts.

I think NSSF has some tracking data.

Speaking from my experience, the first 10 years after college are leaner years for such things

I coached 4-H and SCTP for several years. One of the most gratifying thing I’ve ever done.
I don’t coach anymore, but every year I sponsor a 4-H shooting camp scholarship that pays for the winners camp tuition.
If you love target sports and want to see it continue and grow, please consider donating to your local 4-H or SCTP teams. There are some talented kids whose families have to stretch the budget to let them compete.
