I used to NJ Tackle A-40 lip, if that helps. I had to adjust weighting, but Damn it looks good in the water.
Don't get too hung up on your Cowboy being exactly like the BM. If it swims good and does what YOU want and the fish like it, that is what really matters
On my Jr's I used a lefty-2 high slot (again NJT)
Mess around with yours, that's the fun of it.
I made 2 different versions of the Cowboy. One is subsurface, like the orig. The other is a surface swimmer, with allot of @ss shakin'
My Jr's I went w/3... surface, sub-surface, and deep diving.
All swim great but for different conditions/areas.
