It happens. But a clean miss is far better than wounding. Hey, at least you got to see some deer. A lot of hunters didn't even see 'em.
Interesting thing about deer -- you never know how they'll react after a miss like that. Sometimes they will bound away; other times, they'll run a short distance and stop to check you out (or even stroll back to the area). And after you shoot, other deer will sometimes appear a short time after the shot. Never what you would expect!
