I believe your O.K., but you have to wear orange.

Yes you can.Page 56, by archery during the archery season.If they closed the archery season during firearms season thats news to me. Good luck.

I have the all season license I used my buck tag!Can I harvest a doe with the bow during firearms season?I looked in the reg. book and can't find the answer.I talked to several different people and got different answers.If the answer is in the book let me know where!Thanks Jigster

[JIGSTER]

Thaks for the response!I figured I was alright and wanted some reassurance.Good huntin' Jigster

I never hunt with bow during firearms season, but I thought that if you use a bow during firearms, you can only tag a buck.
This is digging way back into my archives in my head...... I may be wrong.
Maybe the all-season license has changed that scenario.

I'm with adaylate, p 56 "during the archery season"... used to be if you had an archery licence AND a firearms license you could only shoot one deer and if you hunted archery during the firearms season you could only shoot a buck (unless you had a doe tag in the drawing) kind of confusing now, but accoring to p 56 you can fire away. Probably and quick call to the DNR and you could have full confidence rather than having the thought in the back of your head. Hard to tell the Con Officer that "leechlake" said it was okay with him and "adaylate."

biglake,that was what I had thought along with others I asked.I tried the local CO with no luck.(I'm sure he wasn't busy,Right)I spoke with a local gun shop owner and license retailer and I was in the clear.
I went out Sat. evening after a doe and had freak horn 5 pointer pass within 15 yards.(Seed for next year)Time to break out the old smoke pole!!! Good luck and happy huntin' Jigster
