I hit one going about 35 mph on a foggy night in late November in Colchester CT coming back from an unsuccessful deer hunting trip, LOL. My Toyota Xtra cab pickup couldn't stop fast enough of course. I pulled over and called my buddy to help me look for the deer, but after long while we came up empty handed. The brush guard was bent, hood dented and driver corner was smashed. Nothing was rubbing so I just drove home. It was close to $3K damage, that was ~20 yrs ago. My friend went back the following morning and couldn't find the deer.
There are a lot of deer out on the roads at night so it is always good to use your high beams when you can! Those few extra seconds allows you to slow down and allow the deer to pass.
YMMV
