Got rifle tag, can I still bow hunt for ?

I drew an eastern oregon rifle buck deer tag, and am wondering if I can still hunt anything with my bow, or am I now only good for the one rifle hunt?

You can use your bow during the rifle hunt too.

If you were asking about a general season bow deer tag over the counter, that would be a NO.

An additional deer tag (draw) would be an option, but those are gone now.

GUN ROD BOW you for SURE CAN NOT use your bow during general or controlled rifle buck deer seasons. It's just as ilegal as using your gun during bow season. If you have an antlerless or additional deer tag then you could hunt with whatever you choose gun or bow. Check your regulations page 17. SALMONKING, If you purchased your controlled rifle deer tag you cannot buy a deer bow tag. :depressed:

i may not be understanding the direction of this thread.........however, there are hunts rifle/bow that run concurrently.you may hunt with a bow with a specified archery tag.
