I’m probably missing something simple here, but how are there tags left for the 7+ point deer unit I didn’t draw?

2 years ago, I applied for a 7+ point archery elk tag, didn’t draw, then late July/early August got a call from CPW saying “hey you’re next in line for a turned in tag. Do you want it?”

Why wasn’t something like that done for the 7+ point deer unit?

Someone probably drew the tag and turned it back in. I'm not sure how they decide if a tag goes to the leftover list or they call next in line but I'm pretty sure it has to do with the number of resident points it takes to draw. Someone smarter than me can probably answer that
