I've heard of deer "jumping the string"...
From what I've have read and heard is that there are many factors that contribute their reaction.
Wind; if you are up high the deer may not catch your sent but sound still travels quicker in the wind.
Sight; is the deer already suspicious to your presense?
Equipment; Is there any part of your bow that is sending a spoiler sound as the arrow is taking flight. I've heard certain rests that sound light a .22 going off. Take advantage of the technology that's out there and get the string silencers, limb savers, and stabilizers that will help get rid of the vibration that translates into sound.
