Resident odds (2026 draw)

Wyoming residents draw pronghorn licenses by random draw; preference points do not apply to residents for this species, so every resident applicant has the same chance. Simple odds are quota divided by first-choice applicants (second and third choices only pick up what is left).

Draw year	Resident quota	1st-choice applicants	Simple odds
2023	238	44	100.0%
2024	237	39	100.0%
2025	237	64	100.0%
2026	239	51	100.0%

Resident outlook for 2027

Resident odds moved +0.0 percentage points a year on average from 2023 to 2026. If quota and demand follow that line, 2027 odds land near 100%.

Nonresident odds by preference point (2026 draw)

For nonresidents WGFD sets aside most licenses for a preference-point draw and the rest for a random draw that also takes everyone who missed in the point draw. The first odds column is WGFD's published first-choice success rate at each level; the second adds our simple random-draw estimate (random quota over first-choice random applicants). Rows marked < are party applications whose averaged points fall between two levels.

Regular license

Your points	1st-choice applicants	Preference draw odds (WGFD)	With random draw added (est.)
4	2	100.0%	100.0%
< 4	3	100.0%	100.0%
3	13	100.0%	100.0%
2	25	100.0%	100.0%
< 2	33	100.0%	100.0%
1	44	100.0%	100.0%
< 1	28	96.4%	98.5%
<= 0	84	0.0%	57.1%

Forecast for 2027: About 0 preference points is where the draw is likely to cut off next year, so applicants at 1 or more are likely to draw on first choice. Point creep has averaged -0.05 points a year (2023 to 2026). Confidence: medium.

Special license (higher fee, separate quota)

Your points	1st-choice applicants	Preference draw odds (WGFD)	With random draw added (est.)

Forecast for 2027: The trend points to a hunt that draws without points next year if quota and demand hold.
