coyote,
I wish I had an answer on the spoilage? Getting them skinned and hung will buy some time for sure. That is a big draw back to those rut hunts, it is hot and time is critical. I would guess if you got him skinned and hung, then had help to get him out the following day, then into a cooler you will be fine?
I have seen people in areas on Dutton, on foot, that just makes me wonder? For their sake I hope they don't kill anything.
On a better note, I think you have a great tag with great potential. No slam dunks (like pro thinks! Ha!) but a tag you can put a smoker on the wall with! Don't let this internet chatter give you false impressions, go scout and set a goal.
Good luck!
