Odds by Point Level · 2025 Draw

Points Chance Applied Drew

1–10 100% — 49

At the cut level: successes at the cut ÷ applicants left after everyone above drew. A dash means Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks did not publish a count for that level. Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks prints tags issued per point level, not applicants: the 0-point applicant count is derived (total applications minus the winners above it), and the agency's own printed percentage divides by all applications. As a lower choice, RESES-EAST drew no one in 2025, so lower-choice odds are left out.

About These Numbers

Odds are from the 2025 draw, the latest on file, computed from Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks' published results (at the cut level: successes at the cut ÷ applicants left after everyone above drew). 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. How we compute these.
