I mean using it during rifle season to take an animal I have a rifle tag for.Do you mean is it legal to use a crossbow during rifle season, for an animal you have a rifle tag for? Or do you mean, is it legal to carry a crossbow around in an area when a big game rifle season is going on?
The ODFW regs say "Only recurve, long, or compound bows are legal for hunting game mammals," and further state, "It is unlawful to hunt game mammals with:
• Bows having a draw weight of less than 40 pounds (except no minimum draw weight for western gray squirrel).
• Any device secured to or supported by the bow that maintains the bow at full draw."
