Big Game Hunt Statistics and Draw Odds
The Big Game Hunt Statistics and Draw Odds Section provides statistical data for mule deer, elk, antelope, bighorn sheep and mountain goat. This includes the total number of tags sold, the draw odds, the percentage of hunters who drew a tag and were successful in harvesting an animal, and other species specific data like percentage of hunters who harvested a 6 point bull, for example.
The 2002 - 2003 Big Game Status Book is available in our regional offices for sale. This book will provide you 2002-2003 summary of populations status trends, habitat and biologist survey data for each of the units and game categories.
Bonus Points
The bonus point data shows how many applicants were successful in each bonus point category, 10 bonus points being the highest number any applicant had in the 2002 drawing. Because the draw numbers that determine whether or not a hunter draws a tag are generated randomly, there is no guarantee that a hunter will draw a tag for the unit group of his or her choice just because he or she may have more bonus points then anyone else.
Hunt Areas / Unit Map
This section provides a map of the hunting unit areas in Nevada, and their corresponding boundary descriptions.
