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, 473B drew no one in 2023, so lower-choice odds are left out.

How It Hunted, 2025
| Who | Hunters | Harvest | Success |
|---|---|---|---|
| 473a n wagontire | 34 | 23 | 68% |
| 473m wagontire unit muzzleloader | 13 | 8 | 62% |

Adding up Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife's published lines for Unit 73 gives 52 hunters and 31 pronghorn taken in 2025, and 60% of them took a pronghorn (sum of published hunt 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 2023 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.
