Narrative:The airplane sustained substantial damage during a hard landing. The piloted reported that upon returning from the local flight he entered the pattern for runway 36. The pilot stated that he was too high during the landing and the airplane bounced. He then applied power in an attempt to regain control the aircraft, however, the aircraft bounced a second time. The pilot reported that he felt he was too far down the runway to attempt a go around, so he turned the airplane off into the grass. The nose strut collapsed and the propeller struck the ground. The pilot reported no malfunctions with the aircraft engine prior to the accident. Winds were recorded at 010 degrees at 8 knots.
Probable Cause: The pilot misjugded the flare and his improper recovery from a bounced landing.
