Insufficient history (0 of 3 draws) — a creep trend needs at least three draw years with a published drew-out level.

How It Hunted, 2024
| Who | Hunters | Harvest | Success |
|---|---|---|---|
| All of GMU 143 | 68 | 10 | 14% |
Across every license type in GMU 143, Colorado Parks and Wildlife counted 68 hunters and 10 deer taken in 2024, and 14% 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 2021 draw, the latest on file, computed from Colorado Parks and Wildlife's published results (fewer applicants than tags). 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.
