Oregon Deer · SH-01 Sage Hen 01
Oregon SH-01 covers 753,377 acres and lies 26 miles south of Burns. 79% of it is public land, mostly BLM (69%) and wildlife refuge (9%). Its most applied-for hunt, SH101, put up 138 tags (all residencies) in the 2026 draw for 14 nonresident first-choice applicants, 6 of whom drew, and the last tag went to someone with 1 point.
New for 2026: The First Draw Held Here
SH-01 did not exist before the 2026 deer draw. Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife drew it over the older units: 100% Unit 71 — Juniper. Each of those pages keeps the odds history for the ground. The chances below are that one draw's actual results, not an estimate, and there is no point-creep trend to read yet.

About These Numbers
Odds are from the 2026 draw, the latest on file, computed from Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife's 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.
