RE: HELP. . . .
Sorry to say it but there are some very happy coyotes. That deer could have traveled miles before it dropped. I have heard of deer living a long time with an arrow in them. You need to forget about that deer and focuse on the next. The only advice I have about bow hunting is when you shoot one give it plenty of time before you go looking for it. Let it lay up some where close to expire.
Lifes a garden, dig it.
