Default Bow shot deer

Decided to go bow hunting in expanded this am and around 7:55 I shot a 4 pointer and it was a good shot had good lung blood on ground and arrow. I thought I was going to give him an hour or so. Then about 8:15 a coyote came by and I tried shooting him. The coyote proceeded to go down same trail as deer. So I got down from tree stand and tried to find him before coyotes. I think they bumped him and ran him until he fell over. I think this because everytime I found puddles of blood I found coyote tracks. The blood trail went for about a mile up and down ridges and ravines. I couldn't find anymore blood after crawling around on my hands and knees for an hour looking and this was at 3:30pm. Then I proceeded to search area until dark. I feel bad for the deer. I am disappointed because it would have been my first bow deer
