Across Nevada's 76 bighorn sheep units with published draw data, odds range widely. The most sought-after limited-entry units can take years of preference points to pull, while others draw closer to every year. That split is the heart of a Nevada bighorn sheep 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 applicants and points required before you commit. Every figure below comes from official Nevada wildlife-agency draw results; the table sorts hardest-draw first.
A note on grouped hunts. Nevada publishes 32 of these units' figures for a group of units rather than for the unit on its own — one quota and one applicant pool covering several units, which is what you are actually applying for. Those rows are marked, and the average above counts each published figure once rather than once per unit.
