How to read this
Draw is what your point count would have given you in the 2026 draw: for nonresidents the preference-point draw and the random draw everyone who misses it goes into; for residents, licenses over first-choice applicants. Residents buy general licenses over the counter, so those rows are sure.
Success is the share of active hunters on that license who took an elk in 2025, from WGFD's harvest survey. On a nonresident region general license it is the region's nonresident general-license hunters; on an area's general season, everyone who hunted it.
Draw and fill multiplies the two: out of every hundred hunters at your points who put in for it, about how many would have had the tag and an animal. Both are last year's results, not a forecast; quotas, applicants and weather change every year.
