It's to warm to let it lay overnight.  No way it will cool down enough to keep the hams for going bone sour.  Take all the extra light batteries you got.  Don't want to run out of light for this kinda work...

Yep continue with the trailing and if you bump him back off for an hour then repeat. Do this all night till it gets light enough for a follow up shot. If you back out till morning and he is dead, then chances he will be sour for sure. Been there done that.

Hope this works out well for you on finding him in the morning before he sours.
Doubt I would have left unless I knew I needed help, darkness or not.

Good luck!!  :)

  The only bull I left overnight in my life was left overnight in a lot cooler weather than that.  The hide is a great insulator and holds a lot of heat in the animal after it's down.  I lost the hams on that one to bone sour.  The meat is thick there and doesn't cool very well.  Hope you don't have the same issue.
  Once you get him, get the meat off the bone asap and if anything even hints of a sour smell wipe it down with white vinegar and then ice the meat.  That'll address any further souring if it's trying to go bad.
