What is the Lowest Odds Hunt That You Apply For?

Regular 'ol 380 either sex elk and 270 mule deer. One of these years I'll take my points and go play elsewhere....:W:

Interesting! I never knew that many people applied for the Henries!

I was recently looking at some of the draw odds for the Oklahoma elk hunts that I put in for every year. In 2014, you had a 1:6,701 chance of drawing the single elk permit for the Cookson Hills WMA. Similarly, the odds for the Pushmataha tag were 1:6,411. Quite the moonshot! Apparently, Oklahoma used to auction the Cookson Hills tag (link: http://newsok.com/article/2670378). Sadly, the Pushmataha tag wasn't in the lottery this year. What is the lowest draw odds tag that y'all apply for? I think the highest probability deer tag I applied for was 1:16.

Ha, I feel your pain. I was looking at them this year also. I haven't even drawn a deer tag since 2011 I think. The elk and antelope odds are almost non-existent. But for a $5 app fee I apply every year. Somebody has to draw it. Maybe one day it'll be me.

We have good odds for those BD.......like 99.999% we won't...lol

You guys are right, and my wife was one of the lucky folks this year. Ya gotta put in for them, someone has gotta get the tag. Every year since the Turk injunction has been over turned i've had a friend of a friend get a tag.

It depends on how much money I have to front compared to odds. Things like NM sheep, MT big 3, WY goat, Homie don't play dat

The odds for a muley tag in my backyard is getting $hitty. Probly get a sheep tag first. mtmuley

Desert Bighorn. Only $10 for a 1 in 6,000 chance, but I'm out over $100 so far.

Either sheep in UT or MT. Odds are awful in both.
