About Wyoming Map
Wyoming elk and deer draw odds by hunt area, worked out for your own preference points, so you can decide where to apply without reading through the state's reports yourself.
Who runs it
Wyoming Map is an independent site. It isn't run by, affiliated with or endorsed by the Wyoming Game and Fish Department or the State of Wyoming, and you can't apply for a license here. Applications go through Game and Fish.
Where the numbers come from
- Draw results: Game and Fish's published 2026 elk and 2026 deer draw reports.
- Hunter success: Game and Fish's annual harvest reports, currently the 2025 season.
- Seasons and boundaries: Game and Fish's season regulations and hunt-area map layers.
- Maps: terrain from AWS Terrain Tiles and base maps from OpenStreetMap contributors.
Draw reports come out each spring and harvest reports each February. We rebuild the pages from the new reports after that, so a page can lag behind a report that has only just come out.
How the odds are worked out
For a nonresident, your chance combines two draws: what happened at your point level in the preference-point draw, plus your chance in the random draw if you miss it. For a resident, it compares licenses with first-choice applicants. The hunt finder then multiplies your draw chance by that hunt's hunter success rate. Each odds table has a “What these odds assume” note with the details.
What they can't tell you
These numbers describe the last draw, not the next one. Quotas, applicant numbers and rules change each year. Treat them as a guide to where you stand, and check licenses, dates and rules with Wyoming Game and Fish before you apply.
How the site is paid for
The odds and the finder are free. The site earns money from outfitter listings: licensed Wyoming outfitters pay to appear on the pages for the areas they guide in. Listings sit in their own section, in alphabetical order, and play no part in the odds, the success figures or the finder's rankings. A listing isn't an endorsement, so check any outfitter's license with the State Board of Outfitters before you book.
