Delta Waterfowl Celebrates Waterfowl Hunter Recruitment

Ensuring the future of waterfowl hunting is a key part of The Duck Hunters Organization’s mission. In an effort to bolster waterfowl hunter numbers, Delta Waterfowl launched a Mentor Recognition program. This initiative raises awareness about the critical need to recruit new hunters and reward people who share their love of waterfowl hunting with others.

*Mentor Recognition program not intended for mentors and new hunters who attended a Delta Waterfowl First Hunt event. 

Here’s how the program works:

Anyone who mentors a new waterfowl hunter is eligible to upload a photo and short story on this page. Delta Waterfowl will receive a certificate of appreciation and a Delta decal. The new hunter will get a merit certificate and a Delta decal. If successful at taking a first duck or goose, they will earn a Delta Waterfowl First Duck certificate and Realtree decal.
