Blood Trailing With A Lab

I have a 15 month old black lab that I have been trying to train to blood trail a deer. I put him on 2 when he was about 5 months old. Found one but I\'m not sure if it was an accident or not. I have been putting a few drops of blood on a piece of hide and pulling it around the yard and he has gone straight to it every time. He gets a treat and lots of praise and seems to be very driven. I plan on putting him on every deer I can this season weather we know where it is or not. My question is am I doing everything I need to be or is there something else I need to ad to his training? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
