Odds by point level — 2023 draw · no nonresident tags in 2026 — showing 2023

Undersubscribed: 1 of 1 tags claimed by first-choice nonresident applicants in 2023. Everyone who applied drew and the rest went to the leftover draw — the 100% reflects low demand, not a great tag. A code like this can flip the year demand catches up.

Point creep & years to draw

Drew out at 0 → 0 → 0 points (2021–2023): no creep — drew at 0 points each year. Projecting that pace forward:

How this tag has hunted

Across every license type in GMU 103, Colorado Parks and Wildlife counted 385 hunters and 123 deer taken in 2024 — 32% of them killed something. Full GMU 103 profile: maps, public land, five years of harvest →

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. Source: 2024 Statewide Deer Harvest 2023 Statewide Deer Hunting Harvest Estimates

How to read these numbers

Every percentage on this page is a prior-draw probability: the chance an applicant with that many points would have drawn in the draw year shown, computed from the agency's published results. It is not a forecast — quotas, applicant numbers, and point creep change every year. Every figure links to the agency document it came from. Where a state does not publish a number, we show a dash, never a zero. Hunts with fewer than five tags show counts instead of percentages. Fees show the fee year used. Read the methodology for the engine details.

Not an application service

This page is informational only. Draw rules, quotas, fees, and deadlines are set by the state agency and change by commission action — confirm everything on the agency's own site before you apply, and apply through the agency, not here. We disclaim all liability for reliance on this page.
