Insufficient history (0 of 3 draws) — a creep trend needs at least three draw years with a published drew-out level.

Fewer applicants than tags. A dash means South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks did not publish a count for that level. South Dakota runs a second, random pass after the points pass. As a lower choice, RFD-SL4-13 drew no one in 2022, so lower-choice odds are left out.

About These Numbers
Odds are from the 2022 draw, the latest on file, computed from South Dakota Game, Fish and Parks' 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.
