Frequently Asked Questions

What are the current draw odds for Nevada Bighorn Sheep Unit 173B (South Portion)?

The most recent published odds are 3% for resident applicants in 2024 — 66 applicants for 2 tags on the Rifle Late Season ram only hunt. 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 Bighorn Sheep Unit 173B (South Portion)?

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.
