Narrative:

On landing rollout at trk, a herd of deer ran into my path. I don't know how many hit my aircraft. After rolling onto a taxiway and securing the aircraft, I found one deer dead on the runway. Damage to the aircraft is still unknown, but one propeller blade was loose in its hub. It was dark and clear. The event happened very quickly, hard to avoid. I (the pilot) was the only person onboard.
