Points Needed to Draw, 2018–2022
The cut has fallen from 5 to 3 points since 2018.
Point creep: drew out at 5 → 4 → 3 points (2018–2022), no creep — drew at 3 points each year. Years to draw project that pace (the median of the last five draws, capped at 2 points/yr); the agency sets quotas and demand sets the cut.
Wait 3 years after drawing before applying again.

About These Numbers
Odds are from the 2022 draw, the latest on file, computed from Nebraska Game and Parks Commission's published results (preference points, computed from published point-level pools). 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.
