      A lot of poors in farm country hunt and fish with rickety weapons and flat-bottom boats that may or not have outboard motors. They’re a clean shot, too, since ammo is expensive.

      depending on where you are; you can get some cheap hulls and throw on a motor from marketplace all for under 500 bucks. You can get a boat set up for a lot cheaper than a car. Lots of people who are not wealthy use boats to feed themselves in certain parts of America.

        It’s not a hobby for them, though, but means of living. That also include people who do hunt for food or rare but still existing ones who use horses to make living traditional way, for example in some places in Central Asia. Question was about hobby.

          That’s true. Hunting and fishing means food when money is scarce and keeping wild hogs out of the garden.
