Monte Carlo over published bonus-point pools. A dash means Utah Division of Wildlife Resources did not publish a count for that level. How we compute these.
What it costs (2026 nonresident fees)
At the 2026 odds, expected cost per hunt-year ranges from $736 (enough points to draw) to $77,458.23 (lowest published odds).
Not applying this year? A point-only purchase costs $21 (Mar 19 – Jun 23, expected) and keeps you moving toward the 17-point cut.
Next application window: opens Mar 19, closes Apr 23, 2027 (expected) · results ~May 31. Last cycle's schedule rolled forward — confirm when the agency publishes.
Point creep & years to draw
Drew out at 13 → 14 → 17 → 16 → 17 points (2022–2026): +1.0 points/yr (range +0.0 to +2.0). Projecting that pace forward:
| Your points now | Years until a sure thing |
|---|---|
| 0 | creep ≥ 1/yr |
| 3 | creep ≥ 1/yr |
| 6 | creep ≥ 1/yr |
| 9 | creep ≥ 1/yr |
| 12 | creep ≥ 1/yr |
| 15 | creep ≥ 1/yr |
A projection of the last five draws' median creep (capped at 2 points/yr), not a forecast. Random-pass odds still apply every year you're below the cut.

How to read these numbers
Every percentage on this page is a prior-draw probability: the chance an applicant with that many points would have drawn in the draw year shown, computed from the agency's published results. It is not a forecast — quotas, applicant numbers, and point creep change every year. Every figure links to the agency document it came from. Where a state does not publish a number, we show a dash, never a zero. Hunts with fewer than five tags show counts instead of percentages. Fees show the fee year used. Read the methodology for the engine details.
Not an application service
This page is informational only. Draw rules, quotas, fees, and deadlines are set by the state agency and change by commission action — confirm everything on the agency's own site before you apply, and apply through the agency, not here. We disclaim all liability for reliance on this page.
