Default missed buck last weekend

opening morning I was sitting in my favorite treejuston a branchand a small buck came running out of the brush to my side. he stopped right under my tree. then when I was moving to drawhecaught my movement and went to 20 yards out.I drew my bow and got the pin on him and released.the arrow hit a branch and went over his back. I was feeling terrible not paying attention to anything and a nice 6 point walked under my stand then I couldent get the bow back.
