The airplane was landing on runway 4, a 2,500-foot-long, 50-foot-wide, asphalt runway. The pilot stated that he observed a deer on the runway, as the airplane touched down. He then elected to add left rudder and continue the roll-out on the grass located off the left side of the runway, in-between the runway, and a taxiway. During the roll-out, the airplane's right main landing gear became stuck in mud. The airplane spun around, and the right wing struck the ground. Winds reported at an airport located about 17 miles south of the accident site, about the time of the accident, were from 160 degrees at 10 knots.
Probable Cause: An encounter with a deer, as reported by the pilot. A factor in this accident was the muddy grass off the left side of the runway.
