Any thoughts from experienced hunters about whether I could have kept him nearby until it was light enough to see? Or would that have been dangerous?

Identify your target beyond all doubt because you never miss (right?) and I'll be missed.

no -not dangerous at all - one whiff of you or a metallic noise and gone - best thing to do shut up and listen - go into ninja mode - you have done everything right - give small moan or better a red hind in season call ( google it ) - listen - if he is still there you may hear him - be patient but after 15-20 mins likely smelt ya - slow slow slow listen listen listen wind wind wind now apply that
