Not open to this residency that year — no tags, no applicants. Colorado Parks and Wildlife publishes no per-level applicant counts for this hunt. Colorado runs a second, random pass after the points pass. As a lower choice, DE129L2R drew no one in 2026, so lower-choice odds are left out.

How It Hunted, 2024
| Who | Hunters | Harvest | Success |
|---|---|---|---|
| All of GMU 129 | 241 | 104 | 43% |
Across every license type in GMU 129, Colorado Parks and Wildlife counted 241 hunters and 104 deer taken in 2024, and 43% of them took a deer. Colorado's figures come from CPW's post-season hunter survey. CPW's 2025 report dropped the per-GMU table in favour of hunt-code rows, so the newest year shown here is 2024.

About These Numbers
Odds are from the 2026 draw, the latest on file, computed from Colorado Parks and Wildlife's published results (not open to this residency that year — no tags, no applicants). They are what happened in that draw, not a forecast. Under five tags a percentage carries a *, because one applicant either way swings it. A dash means the agency did not publish the number, and a date marked expected is last cycle's schedule rolled forward.
