If you have drawn a cow tag, you can shoot your cow on the archery hunt if you have an archery tag, deer or elk, as well. If you have a muzzleloader deer tag, you can take your cow on this hunt also, provided you are hunting deer in the unit that your cow tag was issued for. The same goes for muzzleloader elk. You can't shoot the cow on any "general season/any weapon" hunt except the hunt specific for that cow tag. That being said, let's see how long it takes the DWR to wipe the Fishlake herd out again. I'm new to this site, and I'm sure there was plenty of talk about the slaughter years back, but it still amazes me that the fish and game won't take any responsibility in the outcome of the herd. The best answer I heard from one of the biologists is that most of the Fishlake cow herd had migrated to the Jacob's Lake area in AZ. Granted, that would have been good for AZ, but total BS. He was dead serious, too. I flat out told him he was wrong and if he wanted all he had to do was go and ask the local meat packers and they could tell them who's freezer the cow's had migrated to. Looking back, it's almost amusing at their infinite wisdom with all their computer models of what the herd numbers should be.
