That deer is dead and was probably dead when you looked for it.

I'm all for waiting until the next morning. You're just stumbling around in the dark when you search that night. And, if you think the shot was questionable, you sure don't want to push it in the dark.

I know it's warm this time of year, so it's a tough call.

You'll find it tomorrow. Hopefully before the coyotes. Bring a dog.....he'll find it in 5 minutes.
