You certainly can.  The Delaware Taxidermists Association is an NTA affiliate and any points earned there will be forwarded to the NTA.  Don't forget, registration starts this coming Saturday at noon until 4 p.m. and mounts must be reclaimed between 1 and 4 p.m. on Sunday afternoon.  IF you come early Sunday, you can join QDMA, get a free all-you-can-eat barbecue with all the fixings and a free round of sporting clays OR 3D archery.  This will get you registered for "participation awards of either a Benelli Vinci shotgun or a Mathews Reezen bow.  There will be awards for class scores in both events as well as auction items to bid on.
