The pilot stated that the airplane developed a rough running engine while in a cruise flight configuration. After unsuccessful attempts to correct the situation or determine the cause of the rough running engine, the pilot made a precautionary landing to a nearby open field. After landing in the field, the pilot checked the airplane's systems stating "...I ran the engine rpm up and down searching for any kind of noticeable miss or any other tell-tale sign that there may be a problem." After checking various systems, the pilot attempted a takeoff from the field. He stated that during the takeoff roll, "...the airplane rose into ground effect, but then drifted down out of it, coming back down to the earth." The pilot stated that he aborted the takeoff, however, during the rollout the airplane encountered rising terrain and become airborne. He stated that when the airplane touched down the second time, it encountered rough uneven terrain and nosed down. The nose gear collapsed during the accident sequence.
Probable Cause: Remedial action delayed during the takeoff roll. Factors include rough/uneven terrain.
