Fails to hit (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

misses

'fails to hit' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for misses that I've seen before include "Fails to meet" , "Unmarried ladies" , "Unsuccessful attempts" , "Failures to hit" , "Young ladies; avoids" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror, The Irish Times, the Evening Standard, The Sun, the Newsday.com, the Universal, The Independent, The Telegraph and the Irish Times (Simplex).
