Otc Sheep

[rogerthat]

Curious when the ability to purchase an unlimited sheep license OTC went away? It appears it is now through the draw only??? What was the background on this change? Was this change put out for public comment? Seems like that will keep you from buying a bonus point for the year if you apply unlimited. But I’m sure they didn’t shut down your ability to buy points during the waiting period which is absolutely ludicrous imo. Just curious if I was the only one that missed this change? Or did they stealth mode this one in?

Noticed that as well. Seems like this year is the first.

Can’t we apply for unlimited and then purchase a bonus point after the draw?

Can’t draw a tag and get a point. I believe it’s first choice only but I don’t have any regs in front of me

The way I read the change was that it went to a guaranteed draw but any bonus points you had would be used when drawn.
