Any time deer are involved it's a tough call which way to go. With your regular car I agree, hit the thing. With a Cobra that's tough, you can go off the road and hope there is nothing there but if you don't know the area I would probably take my chances with slamming on the brakes and hitting the deer. My son wrecked a '66 Mustang when a deer came out he went off the road in a nice grassed area only he hit a road sign head on that was 4x4 post. The post broke off at the bumper of the car and hit the windshield right where he was sitting. If he was not thinking quick enough he probably would have ate this post.
I mentioned earlier I was on the rescue squad. Just about every vehicle accident I have been on when a vehicle has gone off the road has rolled, especially when driven at an above normal speed. Hitting the deer with the Cobra or rolling a Cobra, sounds like a hindsight 20-20 decision to me.
