Default Color Blind

I am red/green color blind. I have stayed away from bow hunting due to lack of confidence in trailing a stuck deer. Due to the advancement in equipment, I am going to give bow hunting a try this year. If I make a good shot, there shouldn' t be much trailing involved. I worry though about making a not so true shot and having a long track to make. I can see fresh (wet) blood if I happen to look right out but if the blood starts to dry it is impossible for me to see it. Are there any other color blind hunters on this board that have any tips on trailing. I usually hunt alone, so I won' t have any extra eyes to help me.

I can' t see my red and green pins very well but the one pin idea, my yellow one, solves that problem.

Thanks
