NDA Member Survey
In our survey last week we asked a series of questions related to the success our membership had filling their deer tags this past season.

We also asked about harvest numbers, and the most notable thing we found here is that a lot of our members did not fill tags. 50% of respondents reported killing zero bucks this past season, and 54% killed zero does. 35% killed one buck, 23% killed one doe, and the success rates declined precipitously from there.
