Across Montana's 74 pronghorn units with published draw data, odds range widely. 1 unit is effectively over-the-counter (100% or better odds, meaning every first-choice applicant draws), while the most sought-after limited-entry units can take years of preference points to pull. That split is the heart of a Montana pronghorn strategy: bank points for a low-odds trophy tag, or hunt a high-odds unit this season.
Draw odds are the ratio of tags available to applicants, so a low number means heavy competition, not a bad hunt. Read them next to the 1st-choice applicants and points required before you commit. Every figure below comes from official Montana wildlife-agency draw results; the table sorts hardest-draw first.
A note on Montana applicant counts. Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks publishes only the applicants who ranked each hunt first, so that is the figure below and the denominator of the odds beside it. Hunters who listed a unit as a second or later choice can and do draw these tags, so the real field competing for them is larger than the number shown. There is no total-applicant figure in the source to publish instead.
What are the draw odds for Montana pronghorn?
Across the 74 Montana pronghorn units with published draw data, average draw odds are 32.6% for the 2025 season. Odds vary widely by unit, so review each unit's 1st-choice applicants and tags available before applying. Figures come from official Montana wildlife-agency draw results. This state publishes only the applicants who ranked the hunt first, so the real pool competing for these tags is larger.
How many people apply for Montana pronghorn tags?
Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks publishes only first-choice applicants — the hunters who ranked a hunt as their top pick — so that is the applicant figure on this page, and it is the denominator of the draw odds beside it. Hunters who listed a unit as a second or later choice also draw these tags, so the real field is larger than the number shown. Montana publishes no total-applicant figure for us to show instead. Some Montana tags also go through landowner preference before the regular draw, so a hunt can show 0% odds here even though its tag was issued — it went to the landowner pool rather than a first-choice applicant.
Which Montana pronghorn unit is the hardest to draw?
Unit 215-30 is among the hardest Montana pronghorn draws, at roughly 0.0% odds in 2025. Low-odds units typically produce higher-quality animals but take years of points to draw.
What is the easiest Montana pronghorn unit to draw?
Unit 900-20 has among the best Montana pronghorn draw odds, around 95.2% in 2026. Higher-odds units are good options for hunters who want to hunt sooner rather than bank points for a premium tag.
