The agency did not publish the level that drew out. Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks publishes no per-level applicant counts for this hunt. How we compute these.
What it costs (2026 nonresident fees)
Optional, not counted above: Mule Deer Stamp (optional second drawing for units 1, 2, 17, 18 archery/muzzleloader applicants; upgrades permit to either-species) $150.
Not applying this year? A point-only purchase costs $25 (Apr 1 – Apr 24, expected) and adds a point for next year's draw.
Next application window: opens Apr 1, closes Apr 24, 2027 (expected). Last cycle's schedule rolled forward — confirm when the agency publishes.
Point creep & years to draw
Insufficient history (0 of 3 draws) — a creep trend needs at least three draw years with a published drew-out level.

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.

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.
