Your odds at 0 points · 2024 draw · no nonresident tags in 2026 — showing 2024
1 first-choice applicant for 50 tags
12 first-choice applicants for 50 tags (all residencies) in 2024, so every first-choice applicant drew and 38 tags went to the leftover draw. The 100% reflects low demand that year, and a code like this can flip the year demand catches up.

Points Needed to Draw
No cut was published in enough years to chart one.
Insufficient history (0 of 3 draws) — a creep trend needs at least three draw years with a published drew-out level.

Odds by Point Level · 2024 Draw
| Points | Chance | Applied | Drew |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0–10 ← you | 100% (small sample) same at every level | — | — |
Preference points, computed from published point-level pools. A dash means Colorado Parks and Wildlife did not publish a count for that level. Colorado runs a second, random pass after the points pass. As a lower choice, DF029O1M drew no one in 2024, so lower-choice odds are left out.

How It Hunted, 2024
| Who | Hunters | Harvest | Success |
|---|---|---|---|
| All of GMU 29 | 829 | 191 | 23% |
Across every license type in GMU 29, Colorado Parks and Wildlife counted 829 hunters and 191 deer taken in 2024, and 23% 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 2024 draw, the latest on file, computed from Colorado Parks and Wildlife's published results (preference points, computed from published point-level pools). 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.
