I am not generally a big social media person but the information and survey below are really important for SD
Bowhunters! Please take 5 minutes and fill out the survey. Everyone's voice needs to be heard to protect our sport!!
This post may not reach everyone that needs it so please share to others!
SOUTH DAKOTA DEER MANAGEMENT
We want to hear from you!
South Dakota Bowhunters,
There are some important conversations happening around the future of deer management and hunting opportunity in South Dakota, and we want to make sure the voices of our members are part of that conversation.
The South Dakota Bowhunters Association has put together a short member survey to better understand how you feel about deer populations, hunting opportunity, harvest management, and potential changes to South Dakota's deer seasons and licensing structure.
Our goal is simple: listen first.
Before SDBA takes positions or provides feedback to South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks on these issues, we want to understand what our members are seeing in the field and what you believe the priorities should be moving forward.
Whether you hunt whitetails, mule deer, public land, private land, East River, West River—or all of the above—we want your perspective.
The survey should only take a few minutes to complete, and the results will help guide SDBA as we advocate for healthy deer herds, sustainable management, and quality bowhunting opportunities for future generations.
Please submit your response by August 28TH, 2026.
Thank you for being a member and, more importantly, for caring about the future of bowhunting and conservation in South Dakota.
South Dakota Bowhunters Association
