Point creep: drew out at 6 → 7 → 10 → 15 → 10 points (2021–2026), +1.8 points/yr (range +0.0 to +2.0). Years to draw project that pace (the median of the last five draws, capped at 2 points/yr); the agency sets quotas and demand sets the cut.

Odds by Point Level · 2026 Draw
| Points | Chance | Applied | Drew |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0–9 ← you | 0% (small sample) same at every level counted in one band: 9 points or fewer | 37 | 0 |
| 10–13 | 100% (small sample) same at every level | — | — |
Points pass + random pass, from published pools. A dash means Wyoming Game and Fish Department did not publish a count for that level: it prints exact counts around the cut and folds the rest into a band. Wyoming runs a second, random pass after the points pass. As a lower choice, 87-1 drew no one in 2026, so lower-choice odds are left out.

| All of Hunt Area 87 | 31 | 27 | 87% |
Across every license type in Hunt Area 87, Wyoming Game and Fish Department counted 31 hunters and 27 pronghorn taken in 2025, and 87% of them took a pronghorn. The first rows are hunters holding this license type; the rest of the area's hunters held something else. Wyoming's figures are estimates from a voluntary post-season survey of license holders, extrapolated to every license issued — not a count of animals checked in.

About These Numbers
Odds are from the 2026 draw, the latest on file, computed from Wyoming Game and Fish Department'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.
