Narrative:The private pilot indicated he was on his second approach for landing with full flaps extended when he experienced some turbulence and elected to go-around. When the pilot applied power, the airplane descended rapidly and impacted the ground. The airplane bounced back into the air, veered off the left side of the runway, and nosed down. The observed weather at the airport around the time of the accident included a 15-knot wind approximately 80 degrees to the left of the nose. The pilot reported having a total of 77.1 hours of flight time, of which 12.9 hours were accumulated in the accident airplane make and model.
Probable Cause: the pilot's failure to maintain control of the airplane during a go-around, which resulted in an in-flight collision with terrain and a nose down. A contributing factor was the turbulence.
