About These Numbers
Odds are from the 2025 draw, the latest on file, computed from Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks' published results. 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.
