The $50 tag thing I think is their new answer to everyone applying for every tag after making it only $3 or whatever it was to apply last year. If a ton of people still apply then it is even more money coming in for them. The requirement for small game or other tag in addition to Big Game I think is something other states do so it is another angle for them to grab at more money. I imagine these type of things will change year to year until they figure out the "new way" to do things since they went away with the old system that worked perfectly fine for a long time in my opinion.
