WHILE ON A LOCAL FLIGHT, THE PILOT MADE A LOW PASS AT A GRASS LANDING STRIP. DURING PULL-UP, THE LEFT WING HIT THE TOPS OF TREES AND WAS DAMAGED. THE PILOT MAINTAINED CONTROL AND CONTINUED ON THE RETURN FLIGHT. HOWEVER, APPROACHING THE RUNWAY, HE WAS UNABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL. THE AIRCRAFT TOUCHED DOWN IN A MUDDY AREA BESIDE THE RUNWAY, THE NOSE GEAR FAILED, AND THE PROPELLER HIT THE GROUND.
