Did any of you resident guys/gals who drew an antelope tag in the regular draw this year get the below, recent email from the FWP? I (as a NR) got this email. Mr brother (as a res) did not get this email. I'm wondering if the FWP was targeting the NR's for these tags.......ie...they make alot more money off of NR's than a res ($200 vs $14). I sent the email to him and he also was able to get one of these tags before they sold out. He would not have known about them if I didn't send him the email. The FWP did not advertise them on their website. I believe in years past the FWP normally puts out 1500 of these tags for this east side of the state. It looks like they made a mistake on the first draw (??) and only did 150.....then came back and sold 1000 more first come, first serve. Thanks.....
