Default First bow kill

I finally did it I shot my first deer. I was on the ground on some public land and had a button buck walk right up to me. I drew back and he heard me ( I thought aww man its over ) well the deer stopped and looked at me I was at full draw and it started stomping its feet. Well I was trying for a shot in the chest ( I know not the best of shots ) but he steped behind a tree. He came back out from behind the tree partially he was at 20 yards and I decided I couldn't hold the bow back anymore it was now or never so I settled my pin on him as low as I could go and released my arrow, OHHH NOOO when i released I pulled my bow and sent the arrow off course. The arrow did hit the deer but it hit him just behind the ear and droped him. I didn't mean to hit him there and felt really bad afterwards but it did the job and I got some meat for the freezer. What do you all think about the shot humane or inhumane. What are some of the oddest shots you guys have ever taken?
