New Mexico turkey hunt TUR-1-107

Unit 30, Washington Ranch and Black River Management Area. Youth Only.. 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 2024 draw did

New Mexico offered 2 licences on hunt code TUR-1-107 in 2024 and issued 2 — the hunt filled. Among the three pools the state draws separately, no nonresident applicant ranked it first; 84 resident applicants ranked it first, and the department published no breakdown of who drew; no guided (outfitter) applicant ranked it first.

This hunt code stops appearing after 2024. 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 5 years it was drawn.

Residency pool

First-choice draw rate, by pool and year

The rate is the winners who were awarded this hunt as their first choice, divided by the applicants in the same pool who ranked it first. Both are exact integers the department printed in the same row. A dash means nobody in that pool ranked the hunt first, so the draw answered nothing — it is an absent measurement, not a nought.

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.

A dash under drew on first choice for a whole year means the department published no breakdown by choice that year. From 2024 its bear and turkey report gives only the residency split of who drew. The licences and the applicant demand are its own figures; the first-choice rate cannot be computed from what it published, so it is left empty rather than filled with something else.

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.

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.
