If its unlimited why didn't I draw one and was told that I did not draw 3 years ago by their DNR. I also know of another guy that didn't get one for this year ???

Apparently Im mistaken, but I was under the impression that that the only liimited tags were Plains tags in SD. Maybe its the archery tag that can be picked up last minute? I better look closely at the regs since I'll eventually hunt it.
