About
QDMA is the leading whitetail organization dedicated to conserving North Americas favorite game animal. We are hunters from all walks of life who share a passion for white-tailed deer. We believe it is our responsibility to ensure the future of white-tailed deer, wildlife habitat and our hunting heritage. As the authority on all things whitetail, we blend the art of hunting with the science of management to create better deer and better deer hunting. We accomplish our mission by focusing efforts in five key areas: Research, Education, Advocacy, Certification and Hunting. QDMA is involved in all areas of white-tailed deer research including biology, ecology, management, hunting, diseases and human dimensions. QDMA helps design, coordinate, and fund practical research projects that increase knowledge and improve management. QDMA has contributed more than half a million dollars to support important research projects in over 20 states and Canada. Since its earliest days, QDMA has been a recognized leader in educating hunters, landowners, wildlife professionals and the public on all aspects of whitetail biology and management and habitat improvement. QDMA continues with existing educational activities such as seminars, field days, and the ever-popular Quality Whitetails magazine, but it also includes delivery methods such as television, DVDs, apps, internships, print materials, web-based opportunities and our e-book, QDMAs Guide to Successful Deer Hunting. We also staff several habitat and cooperative specialists around the U.S. to help guide management decisions for hunters and landowners. QDMA serves as the leading advocate for the wise management of white-tailed deer and the protection of our deer-hunting heritage. QDMA also maintains strong ties with its members, other conservation organizations, state and federal agencies, and other groups with an interest in whitetail hunting and management. In response to member demand, QDMA created both individual and property certification programs. Through Deer Steward and the Land Certification Program users gain a comprehensive understanding of deer biology, ecology, and management; are provided professional advice/assistance where desired; and, are recognized for their efforts in the larger context of deer and land management across North America.
