Ah thank you. After further study I see the NR caps are hit before the hybrid draw so it's useless for NR's for elk and deer. Was gonna point out anyway so i guess i did that. LOL...
I expect nothing, have been more lucky than I deserve. OIL ibex, oryx, elk in 16d and 16 e twice and a 36 archery deer tag.
