Frequently Asked Questions

What are the current draw odds for Nevada Mule Deer Unit 251 - 254?
The most recent published odds are 33.3% for resident applicants in 2025 — 45 applicants for 15 tags on the Rifle Mid Season bull/buck only hunt. The nonresident pool for that same hunt drew at 4% (1 tag, 25 applicants). Nevada publishes applicants and tags but no point threshold with these numbers, so this is the odds for the whole pool — not what a given point total would draw.
How many preference/bonus points do I need for Nevada Mule Deer Unit 251 - 254?
We won't guess. The Nevada report behind these tables gives applicants, tags, and the odds that fall out of them — it carries no point thresholds, so nothing here can tell you what your points would draw. Points still matter when you apply; check the agency's own preference-point report for the cutoff, and read the resident and nonresident rows below separately.
Is the competition increasing for Nevada Mule Deer Unit 251 - 254?
Competition in the resident pool for the Rifle Mid Season bull/buck only hunt looks decreasing or stable. Odds ran 16.7% in 2023 and 33.3% in 2025. The other pool can move the other way, so check both tables.
