So I took my wife up to the East Canyon WMA this morning for the last day of the deer hunt. After we hiked up into this bowl I spott a deers rump in the sage. So we put on a sneak to get close. Once we get to about 300 yards I start to notice something looks fishy. We keep moving and after gaining some elevation on it I notice it is dead. I can only see a body and rump. Curiosity got the best of me and I went to investigate. It was a little 2 point that had been gut shot. It was smelling pretty bad but when I moved it it was still a little bit flexable, not completely stiff. It has been cool at night, but plenty warm durring the day and it looked a little bloated. I moved it off the trail and left it there.
So what would you have done? Take the chance that it was still ok or just leave it for the coyote's?
Second question, the previous evening we were coming hoome from hunting and I hit a spike with the truck. I was slowing but still hit it at about 20-25 mph. It looked like it had a broken back and rear leg. One of the guys that stopped asked if I was going to tag it. I didn't I just finished it and drug it off the road. What do you think, good choice or bad choice?
