[QUOTE="JPRITT, post: 273169, member: 8628"] I've done both. leave it for a first light retreival or spend most of the night skinning and gutting by head-lamp. I think it depends on alot of things like: -tempeture? -can you safely get to the animal in the dark? (cliffs? water? etc.) -what is the likelyhood of loosing you meat to pedators? -maybe you can get more help if you wait and do it in one trip. I think having to wait until morning is perfectly accceptable if the currcumstances dictate. IMHO the important thing is to retieve as much of the animal as possible out of respect to it and the sport, no matter how it has to be done. [/QUOTE]
