I don't think anyone can give you a semi-accurate account..

Even in the crossbow mecca of Ohio they estimate how many are out there. Last estimate was 120,000..

You can calculate a rough number if you want to.

In a recent Deer and Deer Hunting survey they ascertained that 9.6% of the deer hunters hunted with a crossobw.

Deer hunters that hunted with a recurve made up 4.8% and longbow deer hunters was .9%.

So if you know how many deer hunters there are just multiply by that percenatge (9.6%).

That would be a very ROUGH ballpark figure..
