How to fight cowman?
There doesnt seem to be a way to dodge his attacks, and keeping distance doesnt help very much unless ur in huge flatland

Burn him, you also need a lot of arrows.

Stay in close, weave in and out of the area of attack of the stump and move in for 1-2 hits then repeat.

Could just use a spear and go stab stab, slightly less weaving needed.
"You can also throw the spear, pick it up, repeat. They will die fast this way as well but i dont like it"

If done with an upgraded weapon, half teeth/half glass, full teeth, full glass, using a power attack during the downtime will kill it in like 3-7 hits. "crafted skull club + 14teeth/15glass"

If you do get hit, which you will until you practice, the stomps dont do a whole lot of damage and they wont charge you.

Dodge the jump attacks and foot stomps, dont go for more then 1-2 hits. If using a power attack move and you miss then dodge backwards. Basically, watch them, patience, dont get greedy.

If others are around then the cowman is what you want to kill first, then cannibals, if armsy/virginia then i go for cowman>cannibals>armsy>virginia. Most of the time the mutants will kinda bug out and not attack however the armsy you can dodge while melee'n cannibals pretty easy.

Cowman is very vulnerable to fire. Most of the time, fire will stop it dead in its tracks and leave it stunned until the fire goes out. I've fooled around before and ripped it to shreds with a chainsaw while it's stunned from fire, surprisingly effective.

Flare gun - stops him on first shot - wait till he stops burning - shoot again - it will die. (sticky simple bombs use to blow him up but lately they seem to just hurt the mutants - it still blows a cammy to pieces).

Poison arrows slow people down; but they don't do much damage outside of hard mode; so not sure if that will help ya

basically boils down to what type of challenge in battle do you want, plenty of options to choose from, i prefer going face to face

ok so, the way i killed cowman, i used a crafted bow, and modern arrows you find near the nose of the plane. just let him charge at you, and move out of that way. make sure you save your stanima. once you dodged him, shoot him with an arrow, usually only one shot each time, maybe 2 shots if your fast.

I know this thread is dead but i just wanted to tell anyone who is new, that if you are close to a larger body of water. Just bait him to charge at you into the water and hell instantly die
