Odds in This Draw · 2026 Draw

Who Chance Applied Drew
Everyone 58% — 19

First-choice tags drawn ÷ first-choice applicants, as published. A dash means Idaho Department of Fish and Game did not publish a count for that level. As a lower choice, 4030 drew no one in 2026, so lower-choice odds are left out.

Adding up Idaho Department of Fish and Game's published lines for Unit 40-1 gives 516 hunters and 75 pronghorn taken in 2025, and 15% of them took a pronghorn (sum of published weapon rows). The first rows are hunters holding this license type; the rest of the area's hunters held something else. Idaho's figures are counts from mandatory hunter reports and check stations rather than survey estimates, so they behave differently from the survey states.

About These Numbers

Odds are from the 2026 draw, the latest on file, computed from Idaho Department of Fish and Game's published results (first-choice tags drawn ÷ first-choice applicants, as published). 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.
