You certainly want to slow down and quick. That reduces your forward speed (and kinetic energy) in case you and the deer hit. It also increases your reaction distance to take evasive action.

I've heard things like "aim away from the deer it will stand still" to "aim for the deer since it will have moved somewhere else by the time you get there". Both are junk. Just like try to pick next week's lottery numbers using the past 6 months as a guide.
