Since the Archery Cougar Season and Modern Deer and Bear Season Overlap can I hunt Cougar with my bow and hunt deer and bear with my rifle on the same hunting trip?  I'm just curious.  Thanks in advance.

packing a rifle while bow hunting i believe would be an issue
Antlered rabbit tastes like chicken


Inuendo, wasn't he an Italian proctoligist?

Thats what I was wondering, I tried to contact fish and game, but I haven't heard anything back.  Figured I'd run it by you guys to see what you thought.  Not that I necessarily would do it, that is a lot of extra weight to have when you're hunting wilderness.

I think it is weapon specific except the rifle deer season and then why would ya handicap your self as a boot hunter?
