Colorado draw odds, points and success, by GMU
Every limited draw hunt code in CPW's 2026 brochure, with the points it took to draw for residents and nonresidents, tags, and harvest success where CPW publishes it (point history so far for elk). Pick a species, then a unit. Most Ranching for Wildlife hunts aren't included yet.
CPW draw deadlines: the 2026 primary and secondary draws are closed. The next deadlines are published with the next Big Game brochure, usually early in the year. Check cpw.state.co.us.
FAQ
- What is drawn-out-at?
- The preference points held by the last applicant who drew a hunt code, by residency. If you held at least that many points and applied first choice, you would most likely have drawn.
- Why are resident and nonresident points shown separately?
- Colorado draws residents and nonresidents against separate allocations, so the points needed often differ by many points for the same hunt code.
- What does "0 pts (2nd choice)" mean?
- The hunt code filled with second-choice applicants, so every first-choice applicant drew, even with zero points.
