I know the refs say you can use it during fire arm seasons, just could not find if it was legal for muzzy season.
Thanks

No a crossbow would not be legal for muzzleloader season.
If he had a multi season tag would it be than?

Multi-season only allows you to hunt all the seasons, but you still have to comply with the individual season equipment requirements.
Or lesser weapon. I hunted whitetail muzzleloader last week with my Bow. (I had a multi season tag) The only people in this state allowed to use crossbow are disabled. The problem is just like everything else their are those who take advantage of the situation.

During a modern firearm season, sure. But not for archery or muzzleloader seasons, since a crossbow is only legal to use for modern firearm season.

Is there any chance there is/was a M/F late permit hunt that over-lapped the area in question?

Yes. My unit 407 does, you could muzzleload and archery hunt right now.

Still doesn't make a crossbow an option, at least for deer or elk, there is cougar or predator hunting, but figure that is a stretch maybe???
That is unless, as has been said, there is a disability permit in place.

Yes sorry. Forgot to say that. That’s the only situation you should legally be able see a hunter with a crossbow during muzzleloader season

No overlap, just a ML deer area, even with a disability, it would have to be an archery overlap area, correct?
Correct
