I don't know how that is possible. We took a random sample of hunters who registered with HIP that either 1) bought a "duck" license or 2) reported hunting ducks the previous year on the HIP registration questions. That added up to just over 95,000 individuals who were almost certainly duck hunters. We probably missed some lifetime or senior license holders that may not have been asked the HIP registration questions, but all people in our sample database showed solid evidence of being a waterfowl hunter.
Those are the right folks, and you've seen the response rates.
