well most states have that law where you have to be permitted to get the deer. If thats the case, contact the game warden if he wont willingly let you. If not, thats a tough call. If I were set into that position right now, I know its not the "right" answer, but I'm getting the buck. Just go get him drag him the 10yds back, and go on your way. 10yds isn't much but if it were a good ways it would be a different story, but 10yds is a jump and crash. I know it wasn't the "right" answer but it was my honest one. I HIGHLY doubt that many would flat out say no and leave the deer 10yds away to rot. Just my $.2
