What is the protocol for depatching a wounded deer where you are? We have a lot of Hooray Henry's here in the UK that fancy themselves as Great White Hunters that go off into the Scottish Highlands in shooting parties, paying stupid money for the priviledge, they usually end up wounding a deer and the Gillies have to track the animal for miles to put it out of its misery, do you have paid-for city people doing the same that have to be mopped up after?
Gillies...haha...reminds of the old Monarch of the Glen series (which I watched on Netflix).
I know hunters, not one myself. Nature tends to handle the cleaning up around here, I think.
We had a skunk die in front of our driveway in Pennsylvania several years back. No one would touch it. It took two days for the carrion birds to have the carcass turned inside out and totally stripped. I finally picked up the skin and threw it away. It didn't even stink. It was fascinating to watch them work at it between cars driving past.

I don't think a Hooray Henry would last very long down here.:wink: Taking a life, of any being, is a very serious matter, and don't know of any long time hunter that doesn't treat it as such. Anybody that was caught doing anything less than trying to kill an animal as quickly as possible would be treated to a little southern hospitality.
If the shot put on the deer yesterday had been one inch farther in towards the shoulder, he would have watched her fall in sight. Never would've had to call for help.
But to specifically answer your questions, protocol for dispatching a wounded deer is to use any weapon that is legal for the season. In my area, there aren't any guide operations for big game. People from anywhere in the world can pay dues to become a member of a hunting lease, but that is it.
And like I said, anyone not doing their best to kill as quickly as possible would not be welcome and would be dealt with as quickly as possible.
