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	36	210	17.1%
2024	36	286	12.6%
2025	35	283	12.4%
2026	35	277	12.6%

Resident outlook for 2027

Resident odds moved -1.5 percentage points a year on average from 2023 to 2026. If quota and demand follow that line, 2027 odds land near 11%.

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.)
17	1	100.0%	100.0%
16	2	100.0%	100.0%
< 16	79	0.0%	0.0%

Forecast for 2027: About 17 preference points is where the draw is likely to cut off next year, so applicants at 18 or more are likely to draw on first choice. Point creep has averaged +1.33 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.)
8	2	100.0%	100.0%
< 8	1	0.0%	0.0%

Forecast for 2027: About 9 preference points is where the draw is likely to cut off next year, so applicants at 10 or more are likely to draw on first choice. Point creep has averaged +1.00 points a year (2023 to 2026). Confidence: low.

History

Draw year	NR regular cut	NR special cut	NR random odds (regular)

2024	< 14 pts (67% drew at that level)	10 pts (all drew at that level)	0.9%
2025	16 pts (all drew at that level)	10 pts (50% drew at that level)	0.0%
2026	16 pts (all drew at that level)	8 pts (all drew at that level)	0.0%
