Oregon Deer NE102

Northeast 02 Mule Deer in NE-02 — Northeast 02, rifle only, Oct 3–14, 2026. 49% public land, mostly National Forest.

New for 2026

The 2026 draw is the first on record for NE102: Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife did not offer this hunt code in earlier years, so the year-by-year table has one row and there is no point-creep trend to project yet. The odds shown are that one draw's actual results, not an estimate. The ground it covers was hunted under other codes before: see what this hunt replaced.

Insufficient history (1 of 3 draws) — a creep trend needs at least three draw years.

Points pass + random pass, from published pools. A dash means Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife did not publish a count for that level. Oregon runs a second, random pass after the points pass. As a lower choice, NE102 drew no one in 2026, so lower-choice odds are left out.

What This Hunt Replaced

Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife published how its 2026 hunt map lines up with the old one. Shares are of ground, not of tags or applicants: a hunt that used to draw at 18 points and one that drew at 3 can both be inside this one. Each old code links to its own odds history.

About These Numbers

Odds are from the 2026 draw, the latest on file, computed from Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife's published results (points pass + random pass, from published 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.
