The agency did not publish enough counts to compute this level. Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency publishes no applicant counts for this hunt, so the chance is the pool average. As a lower choice, ELK-ARCH drew no one in 2025, so lower-choice odds are left out.

Earlier Years, When This Number Was a Different Hunt
Tennessee reassigns hunt numbers between years. In these years ELK-ARCH stood for another EHZ or weapon, so they are listed here rather than counted as this hunt's history or in its point-creep trend.

About These Numbers
Odds are from the 2025 draw, the latest on file, computed from Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency's published results (the agency did not publish enough counts to compute this level). 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.
