Points Needed to Draw
No cut was published in enough years to chart one.
Bonus points (squared) — no cut to track: each point adds entries to the draw rather than a place in line.

As a Lower Choice
Tags issued to lower choices ÷ lower-choice applicants, as published. Nevada draws lower choices with your points too, so this is an average across everyone who listed it lower: an applicant with more points than most does better.

About These Numbers
Odds are from the 2025 draw, the latest on file, computed from Nevada Department of Wildlife's published results (monte Carlo over published bonus-point 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. How we compute these.
