After touching down during the landing roll I began maneuvering the aircraft to the right to avoid hitting at least one deer that I saw on the left side of the runway.  As the aircraft entered into the grass I attempted to maneuver the aircraft back onto the runway while simultaneously attempting to become airborne again when the nose gear collapsed resulting in a propeller strike and sudden stoppage.I was the only person on board; there were no injuries; and there was no damage to any other property.
