I actually switched my archery tag yesterday. A guy came in to switch his dedicated hunter rifle tags and they wouldn't let him. This is why. The archery tags don't have an allocated amount per region but an overall amount for all regions combined. There is no cap on specific regions allowing you to change. So basically all 14,000 or whatever archery hunters could get Southern tags if that's what they all put in for. So as long as you have an archery tag you can switch regions. You can't do this for the muzzleloader or rifle tags because each region has it's own cap on tags. You could only switch to a region with a leftover tag amount. So if all tags are sold out for each specific region, you're unable to switch to a different region. Hope this helps.
