Fantastic job.

I will second what Morning Star said.

You did the right thing by backing out.

Big bucks can be just plain tough, and he surely fits the criteria for "big bucks".

The arrow entered at about the second rib forward on right side, angling down and forward to the opposite shoulder.  No exit wound.  Liver and paunch were gone.  Looked like top of the left lobe of the lung had been cut.  Autopsy was tough since the coyotes had removed most of the organs including the heart.

The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

Sometimes you win, sometimes you win and lose at the same time, but you did the right thing, and because of your persistence, your first will always be a beautiful story. The Coyotes are hunters too.
Congrats

Way to stick with it.It all makes for a good "1st trad kill" story and that's a very nice buck,too.

Way to stay with it.  I enjoy reading stories of tough tracking, good decisions, persistance, and success.
