The pilot reported that during the third approach practicing touch-and-go landings, he felt and heard the propeller hit the ground and realized that he had forgotten to lower the landing gear. The airplane touched down on the runway, and skidded to a stop in about 600 feet substantially damaging the lower fuselage. The pilot reported no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airframe or engine that would have precluded normal operation.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to lower the landing gear prior to touchdown.
