Oregon Resident Tag Opportunities

[7mm man]

Can anyone elaborate on big game tag opportunities as an Oregon resident? Are you able to get mule deer tags every year? How often can you get Rocky mountain elk tags? Roosevelt elk tags every year? Any input is appreciated. Thanks.

Generally, mule deer and Rocky Mountain elk tags are on the eastside of the state and draw only. Archery is easier to draw than rifle. Better units take years to draw. For mule deer, its questionable if it's worth waiting years. The mule deer population isn't doing that great. Roosevelt are on the westside and not draw. The regulations are out and there's a good independent website on draw odds by unit for residents.
