Point creep & years to draw

No points in this draw — every applicant has the same chance each year, so there is no cut to creep and nothing to build toward.

How this tag has hunted

Across every license type in Unit 47, Idaho Department of Fish and Game counted 103 hunters and 21 deer taken in 2025 — 20% of them killed something. Full Unit 47 profile: maps, public land, five years of harvest →

Hunters holding this license type (2025) — the rest of the area's hunters held something else:

What they hunted Hunters Harvest Success Days per animal
Type 1036 45 29 64%
Type 1104 38 24 63%
Type 1105 16 10 62%
Type 1174 3 2 67%

Idaho's figures are counts from mandatory hunter reports and check stations rather than survey estimates, so they behave differently from the survey states.

Year by year

The standard draw for nonresidents, one row per year. Idaho runs a second, random pass after the points pass; it is shown beside the year it belongs to.

Earlier years, when this number was a different hunt

Idaho reassigns hunt numbers between years. In these years 1104 stood for another unit or weapon, so they are listed here rather than counted as this hunt's history or in its point-creep trend.

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.
