Sportsmen of Michigan
At Sportsmen of Michigan we strongly support the Quality Deer
Management Association. We believe in their mission and the proven
science principles of Quality Deer Management.

The QDMA is the nations leading whitetail deer conservation
organization staffed by some of the nations most talented wildlife
biologists and conservationists. Their mission is simple but backed by
decades of scientific research.

QDMA Mission Statement:

“The QDMA's mission is to promote sustainable, high quality white-
tailed deer populations, wildlife habitats, and ethical hunting
experiences through education, research, and management in
partnership with hunters, landowners, natural resource professionals,
and the public.”

Why are we such strong supporters? Because the QDMA
Promotes:

  • Safe and ethical hunting.
  • Adherence to wildlife and trespass laws.
  • Adequate harvests of adult does.
  • Restraint in harvesting young bucks.
  • Hunter involvement in education and management.
  • Cooperation with wildlife biologists and enforcement officers.
  • Education of hunters and non-hunters toward a better
    understanding of wildlife management.
  • Stewardship and appreciation of all wildlife.

Behind the scenes the QDMA staff has developed numerous
partnerships with state wildlife agencies, timber companies, hunting
groups, and product manufacturers.

The QDMA also provides unmatched educational opportunities with
regard to deer and their habitat for sportsmen around the country. If
you are a dedicated deer hunter and conservationist we proudly
recommend that you become a member of the QDMA. Quality
Whitetails magazine alone is worth the membership fee and that is a
small part of membership benefits.
If you are a dedicated deer
hunter and conservationist
