Overall odds for Tennessee are technically about 18:12,000, So 1:667
But a lot more people put in for rifle. So odds are, a bunch of folks have gotten drawn and none of their choices were available so they are unsuccessful.
Closest I have been able to figure, the best you can get your odds to by choosing the lowest entry hunts are about 1:100, or once every hundred years you apply.
Doesn't help that TN is 5 years behind on draw statistics.
