It happened so fast, very little went through my mind. I just knew the tires were howling too much to attempt a swirv and letting up on the brakes was not an option.

Reflecting after the fact, my only other option would have been to aim for the left side of the road. Do to the speed of the deer, I think if I had swirved and not braked, I would have hit it. Actually if I had not braked it would have hit the side of the car. Perhaps it would have landed in the cock pit. It was in the air before it entered the road way and was past the center of my lane before its hooves touched the asphault. It was running flat out.
