Fewer applicants than tags. Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife publishes no per-level applicant counts for this hunt. Oregon runs a second, random pass after the points pass. As a lower choice, 219T drew no one in 2026, so lower-choice odds are left out.

Adding up Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife's published lines for Unit 19 gives 1,696 hunters and 197 elk taken in 2025, and 12% of them took an elk (sum of published weapon rows). The first rows are hunters holding this license type; the rest of the area's hunters held something else. Oregon requires every tag holder to report, but the numbers ODFW publishes are survey estimates expanded from the reporting rate — the agency's own tables are titled "Estimated harvest... based on Mandatory Harvest Survey Reports" — not a count of animals checked in.

About These Numbers

Odds are from the 2026 draw, the latest on file, computed from Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife'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. How we compute these.
