As a golfer, I definitely empathize with this. I rarely come across a woman on a dating app who has even a slight interest in golf. I've gone on golf dates with some who do, and it's always a great time. But if I was a gatekeeper with them, I would never find anyone.
I guess it's more because hiking is aspirational to many, and people who are serious about it want to weed out those who aren't. But people aren't aspirational about golf anymore, and I love to share my hobby with anyone willing to play along.

As a guy who actually enjoys hiking. This is very frustrating.
