RE: HELP! Tag exchanging options?
Zero, nada, zilch!!! Once you buy it there is no going back for returns or exchanges. You must be near death or dead to turn a tag in and get a refund, so tell him to go with the flow, do his homework, and be happy to hunt the Region J tag.

RE: HELP! Tag exchanging options?
It's called $$$$$ and there would be a lot of people wanting them to make exceptions, so they make very, very few. My buddy lives in Sheridan and his 73 year old Dad lives up here in Michigan a couple hours north of me. Last year about ten days before the deer season opened he had to have an emergency knee operation and couldn't go hunting with us. He had been out there for like 40 straight seasons and he had to go through so many hoops to return his tag and get a refund that he almost decided to eat the tag. Overall, I have had nothing but positive comments for the F&G, but in this particular instance they were not pleasant at all to someone who has spent thousands of dollars in that state over that long period of time.

My brother wanted to get a leftover region F deer tag and ended up purchasing a region J tag, unquote.
Sounds like your brother made a mistake by entering the wrong Region tag in his transaction.....can't blame the state for not allowing him to change.
Bet next time he pays closer attention and makes no mistake.
A couple of friends made a mistake back about 7 years ago on their Wyo applications. For 25 years they always hunted REGION G....but for some reason one did what the other said and entered H where they had no idea how to hunt it much less where it was....boundary wise.
When I saw what they drew that summer online, I made a few quick calls to the other guys and said "do you know where those two are going hunting"?
Long story short....one of them never stopped calling the other one ever name in the book for three months...of course the rest of us laughed our butts off.
