Hunting sports face constant challenges that impair the quality, and at times, the existence of the sport in general.  A strong and unified sportsmen's voice is imperative to counter the obstacles and raise awareness of the benefits of hunting.

Your membership helps ensure Minnesota's future by:

• Promoting education to guarantee the future of our hunting heritage

• Investing in Minnesota's wildlife and habitat so our hunting heritage will carry on

• Voicing your concerns for conservation at the Minnesota Sate Capitol.  Legislators ask for MDHA member's opinions and feedback - we are the primary voice of Minnesota's deer hunters, but our voice is only as strong as our membership.

Membership with any group consists of two aspects: opportunity to receive and opportunity to contribute.  MDHA prides itself in both areas as your membership with us includes:
