Colorado deer hunt codes that drew at 1 preference point, 2026

In CPW's 2026 primary deer draw, 100 deer hunt codes drew out at 1 preference point for residents, 9,305 licenses in all, and 78 drew out at 1 preference point for nonresidents. A resident who listed one of them first with 1 point drew it in the 5 codes where every 1-point applicant drew, and some did in the rest. Residents with fewer points drew 679 other codes outright or at lower levels.

Every figure is from Colorado Parks and Wildlife's 2026 Draw Recap report for deer, with 2025 and 2024 beside it. "Drew out at" is the point level of the last license the primary draw gave that group. It is what happened in 2026, not a forecast for the next draw. How Colorado's preference points work.

Which Colorado deer hunt codes drew out at 1 preference point for residents in 2026?

100 codes: D-M-069-O2-R, D-M-069-O3-R, D-M-070-O3-R, D-E-069-O1-A, D-E-049-O1-A, D-M-062-O2-R and 94 more, by CPW's 2026 Draw Recap report. "Residents at that level who drew" is CPW's "# Drawn at Final Level": of the residents who listed the code first with exactly that many points, how many drew. Sorted by points, then licenses.
