I wouldn't mind trying to get a cow tag for the book cliffs. Do you know how that works in regards to bonus points? I don't wanna use my points on a cow tag.

I don't. But I intend to find out. My plan was to try to hunt a certain unit for cows while I built up points for the LE bull. So I could get familiar with the area.

Aren't there o.t.c cow tags as well? Or is it an application process. I Keep hearing rumors of "o.t.c" cow tags.

Preference points for anterless hunts and bonus points for LE and OIL hunts.
So different sets of points.
The otc cow tags occur on units that are over objective or depredation problems. The cow tag can only be used in conjunction with an antlered tag and is called a controlled permit.

Example 1: If you have a permit to hunt buck deer on the Pine Valley unit, you may purchase an antlerless elk-control permit and harvest an antlerless elk on the Pine Valley unit during your deer hunt.

Example 2: If you have an any bull elk permit and you’re hunting on the South Slope unit, you can obtain an antlerless elk-control permit. You can harvest a bull elk anywhere on the unit, but you may only harvest an antlerless elk within the South Slope, Yellowstone elk-control unit.
