Own land in one of these states?
These are over-the-counter states — tags aren't the bottleneck, access is. Where public land is scarce and harvest is strong, your ground is what a hunter will pay to be on. Open any state, flip to “I own land here,” and see your counties ranked by opportunity — then list your access free. You pay 10% only when a hunter books.

The pipeline
Each state: find the agency's official draw report → parse it → render with a source citation. Colorado's hunt-code/leftover system and Wyoming's hunt-area pref-point pool are completely different — the ingest engine handles both, and tracks the rollout to all 50.
