A couple of observations and questions:
1. most wounded deer that I have had to track have circled back. Even a big 8 I shot through the heart he was dead and didnt know it. Ran a 300 yard circle back and died 5 yards from where it was standing when I shot it.

2. watery blood doesnt mean anything it is still blood. Ok you may have hit bone but you did hit the deer.

3. what bullet were you using? By this I am asking was it a ballistic tip? or a powerbelt? If it was, then here is your problem. They just do not (in most cases) pass through therefore you dont have a good blood trail to track.
