New Mexico ibex hunt IBX-1-102
Unit 25 Florida mountains. Bag limit female or immature (F-IM). Of the people who ranked this hunt first, how many drew it — year by year, and separately for each of the three pools New Mexico draws. Every figure comes from a Department of Wildlife report linked at the foot of this page.
What the 2025 draw did
New Mexico offered 20 licences on hunt code IBX-1-102 in 2025 and issued 20 — the hunt filled. Among the three pools the state draws separately, 82 nonresident applicants ranked it first and none of them drew it; 218 resident applicants ranked it first and 3 drew it, 1.38%; 12 guided (outfitter) applicants ranked it first and 1 drew it, 8.33%.
This hunt code stops appearing after 2025. The department's 2026 report does not carry it, and this site does not map a retired code onto a current one — a renumbered hunt is not necessarily the same hunt, and the department has published nothing that says which is which. What is below is the record of the 3 years it was drawn.
First-choice draw rate, by pool and year
| Year | Pool | Ranked it first | Drew on first choice | First-choice draw rate | Ranked it 2nd or 3rd | Licences to this pool | Share of the quota |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | Resident | 218 | 3 | 1.38% | 1,842 | 17 | 85% |
| 2025 | Nonresident | 82 | 0 | 0.00% | 360 | 1 | 5% |
| 2025 | Guided (outfitter) | 12 | 1 | 8.33% | 44 | 2 | 10% |
| 2024 | Resident | 200 | 2 | 1.00% | 1,814 | 17 | 85% |
| 2024 | Nonresident | 66 | 1 | 1.52% | 306 | 1 | 5% |
| 2024 | Guided (outfitter) | 13 | 0 | 0.00% | 54 | 2 | 10% |
| 2023 | Resident | 211 | 1 | 0.47% | 1,813 | 17 | 85% |
| 2023 | Nonresident | 68 | 0 | 0.00% | 335 | 1 | 5% |
| 2023 | Guided (outfitter) | 13 | 0 | 0.00% | 39 | 2 | 10% |
Share of the quota is the department's own R% / NR% / O% column: this pool's share of the licences offered. It is an allocation split set by state law — a minimum of 84% resident, 10% outfitted, 6% nonresident — and not a chance of drawing. It reads 100% on any hunt residents took in full. It is shown because the department publishes it and a reader will meet it elsewhere, not because it answers the question this page is about.
The first-choice draw rate, year by year
One strip per pool, because the three are drawn separately under different shares and a single averaged line would hide the only distinction most readers are here for. Each figure is a record of what that year's draw did. None of it forecasts the next one.
Rounded to whole percentages here; the table above carries them to two decimals. A dash means nobody in that pool ranked this hunt first that year.
Licences offered against licences issued
These are different numbers and the department publishes both. A hunt can fail to fill, and 35 of the 893 hunts in the 2026 report did.
| Year | Licences offered | Licences issued | Applicants who ranked it first | Applicants in total |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2025 | 20 | 20 | 312 | 2,558 |
| 2024 | 20 | 20 | 279 | 2,453 |
| 2023 | 20 | 20 | 292 | 2,479 |
Applicants in total counts everyone who ranked this hunt anywhere in their three choices, across all three pools. It is a measure of demand, not of competition for a first-choice licence.
