The National Deer Association released its 2025 Deer Report on Jan. 16 with a new interactive report that makes it even easier for hunters to see harvest trends in the states where they hunt.
The annual report is a comprehensive look at nearly everything a hunter would want to know about whitetails across the country. According to the report, U.S. hunters shot more than 3 million whitetail bucks during the 2023-24 season and set a record for the most mature bucks in the harvest.
