About These Numbers
Odds are from the 2024 draw, the latest on file, computed from New Mexico Department of Game and Fish's published results (fewer applicants than tags). 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.
