AI Hunt Advisor

A draw-strategy and hunt-planning chat assistant for western big game hunters. Ask about unit selection, point burn timing, archery vs rifle tradeoffs, and what your saved hunts and preference points actually mean for your odds.

Who this is for

Western big game hunters who already have draw-odds questions but want a second opinion grounded in their own point totals, saved units, and harvest history. Most useful for hunters with 1–10 preference points across multiple states.

How it works

Built on Anthropic's Claude. Pulls live context from your ProHunt saved hunts, preference-point tracker, and harvest log when you're signed in. Returns reasoning alongside the recommendation so you can sanity-check it against the underlying data.

What hunters actually ask

Real example questions and the angle the advisor takes on each:

  • "I have 4 Colorado elk preference points — should I burn them this year or wait?"

    Pulls the published draw odds, point requirements and tag/applicant counts for Colorado elk units, compares them against your points and your stated weapon and season tolerance, and sends you to the Draw Odds Engine for the full six-year point-creep trend on any unit worth a closer look.

  • "Compare archery and rifle elk odds for Wyoming non-resident at 3 points."

    Side-by-side nonresident numbers: archery draw odds in the hunt areas you're eligible for, rifle odds in the same areas, weather and timing tradeoffs. The WGFD demand reports we ingest carry no point thresholds, so the advisor gives you the odds and says plainly that it can't price what your points are worth there.

  • "What's a realistic 5-year point plan if I want a premium Arizona elk tag?"

    Walks through the tag, applicant and odds history we hold for Arizona's premium elk hunts, and what's worth applying for in years 1–4 while you accumulate. The Arizona draw reports we ingest carry no point thresholds, so for "how many points does it take" the advisor sends you to AZGFD instead of guessing.

Methodology & limitations

  • Every specific figure the advisor quotes — draw odds, point requirements, tag and applicant counts, harvest success — is read from ProHunt's agency-sourced datasets and passed to the model with the question. When we have no published figure for what you asked, the advisor says so instead of estimating. See Data Sources for the full list.
  • We don't hold point requirements for every state. The Colorado, Oregon and Utah reports we ingest print the points it took to draw, so the advisor can quote them. The Arizona, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico and Wyoming reports carry applicants, tags and odds with no point column — for those the advisor gives you the odds and tells you the threshold isn't in our data, rather than inventing one.
  • Resident and nonresident odds are different products, and the advisor won't quote a figure without saying which one it is. Wyoming elk hunt area 47 (rifle, general, either sex) drew 100% for residents and 6.7% for nonresidents in 2026 — same tag, same year.
  • Recommendations reflect the most recent published draw cycle. Mid-cycle quota changes announced after a refresh may not yet be incorporated.
  • The advisor is a planning aid, not the official regulation booklet. Always verify season dates, fees, and rules with the agency before applying or hunting.
  • AI responses are reviewed against our AI Content Policy. The advisor will not generate fabricated field anecdotes; it sticks to data and reasoning.
