Update: As of June 5, more tags have been added to the Nevada Second Draw. The tables below have been adjusted.Update: As of May 28, more tags have been added to this list and I have adjusted the tables below. This list now includes tags that were returned in the 1-week grace period that did not have an alternate to issue.
For 2020, there are over 300 archery only mule deer tags available in the second draw and a handful of antelope and one elk.
There are over 200 resident-only youth mule deer tags.
The second draw application period for Nevada is from June 8 through June 15 at 11 p.m. PST. Both residents and nonresidents are available to apply for the second draw.
The deadline to submit your application is June 15 and you can apply online here. Results will be made available on July 8, 2020. Note: If you apply for a tag in the second draw and are successful you will lose your bonus points. If you are building points, I highly suggest you avoid picking up a leftover tag during the second draw. The remaining tags are not worth burning 3, 5, or even 10 bonus points for. But, if you're just starting to apply in Nevada or you're looking for a hunt to fill a void in your hunt schedule, then applying for a leftover tag is a smart move. The list of available tags and their trophy potential can be found in the tables below.
Tags show on this list for a number of reasons:
1. If the nonresident quota is filled and these tags didn't get put in for by residents, they will now show up in the second draw.2. These tags were awarded in the main draw and electronically returned by the awarded party. Pursuant to NAC 502.421 there were no eligible applicants who indicated a desire to be placed on the alternate list who’s first choice area and season matched the electronically returned tag.3. The original count of tags for this weapon class and unit group were augmented as additional tags have been returned.4. This second draw tag list now includes tags that were returned in the 1-week grace period that did not have an alternate to issue.
Note: You will not lose your bonus points if you pick up a tag that is leftover after the second draw (first-come, first-serve). Any mule deer tags remaining after the completion of the big game second draw process will be available to eligible resident and nonresident applicants through a first-come, first-served process (available on July 24), with the exception of the junior mule deer and antlerless mule deer hunt tags, which will only be available to eligible resident applicants.
All remaining tags (except antlerless and youth) are available to both resident and nonresident eligible applicants, regardless if they were resident or nonresident leftover.
