Two interests stand out in this relatively small sample of ENTJs: overnight backpacking & kayaking. They share the same two middle NT letters as the other two strong overnight backpacking types: INTJs and ENTPs. (The fourth NT type -INTP - is slightly more likely to prefer Day Hiking over Overnight Backpacking trips). The 4 NT types also share an above average fascination with kayaking.
~~~~~~
Other listed interests included: Snowboarding, snowmobiling, running (2), mountain biking, roller blading, water skiing (2), snow skiing (2), biking (2), ultimate frisbee, swimming, overnight camping, and long bicycle tours.
While ESTJs and ENTJs share 3 of the 4 type letters, from our small sample it appears ENTJs are much more actively involved in a broader array of outdoor leisure sports (or else they surf the internet to a much greater extent. I suspect both factors are at play here.)
The two dominant extraverted Thinking types - ESTJ and ENTJ - seem to have different leisure time interests. ENTJs seem to be drawn more to individual outdoor life sport activities. My guess is ESTJs may be drawn to more competitive outdoor sports (team sports, golf, tennis, etc.) and fishing and hunting (which also have elements of competition to them).
