Texas Deer ADE-CO
Archery Deer - Copper Breaks SP in Copper Breaks SP, archery only, Nov 13–15, 2026. 100% public land, mostly State land.
New for 2025
The 2025 draw is the first on record for ADE-CO: Texas Parks & Wildlife Department did not offer this hunt code in earlier years, so the year-by-year table has one row and there is no point-creep trend to project yet. The odds shown are that one draw's actual results, not an estimate.

Bonus points (cubed) — no cut to track: each point adds entries to the draw rather than a place in line.

Odds by Point Level · 2025 Draw
| Points | Chance | Applied | Drew |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0–10 ← you | <1% (small sample) pool average: a floor with points | — | — |
Unweighted tags ÷ applicants — state did not publish pools. Texas Parks & Wildlife Department publishes no per-level counts for this hunt; each point adds entries (points³ + 1), so the pool average is a floor for anyone holding points and an overstatement for a first-year applicant. As a lower choice, ADE-CO drew no one in 2025, so lower-choice odds are left out.

About These Numbers
Odds are from the 2025 draw, the latest on file, computed from Texas Parks & Wildlife Department's published results (unweighted tags ÷ applicants — state did not publish 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.
