I just checked and it shows I (NR) drew the antelope tag again for 700. I drew it last year too and it took me 3 points. Is that possible to draw it again with 0 points (non-res)? If so...I didn't see that one coming. Otherwise I would have cashed in my lope doe points too.
Worst case....the MT F&G screwed up the draw again...so I'm not jumping up and down just yet.

I just spoke to the FWP license folks to see if there was a typo with the draw. The total quota was 8000...up to 800 for NR's. For those tags....the lady said you can have 6 pts and not draw.........or 0 points and draw. It is totally random with those type points. I was one of the very lucky 0 point bubbas that drew. Now I'm going to buy some mega millions lotto tickets for the next draw.

Good deal man. I drew a 471 buck and a 471 doe/fawn. I had to look 6 times since it’s been 9 years since I drew a gun tag.

^Congrats! I wish I could have cashed in my doe points. The lady at FWP told me there are no leftover doe tags for the 700 areas.

That’s hard to believe. That area always gives out a ton of tags. I do know they are cutting tags in a few areas from population decline. I’m glad I drew this year as I feel like it’ll be another 9 or 10 years on a rifle tag. Good luck on your hunt this fall.

No luck on a 700-20 tag for me and a buddy. Any ideas when we'll get refunds?

^I believe the License Office's voice mail mentioned something about the end of the month. I guess they want to get some extra interest off your money before returning it?
