DURING TAKEOFF ROLL, THE ENGINE RPM DROPPED TO 2600 AND STARTED RUNNING ROUGH. SHORTLY AFTER TAKEOFF, THE PILOT ELECTED TO MAKE A PRECAUTIONARY LANDING. DURING LANDING ROLL THE AIRCRAFT'S LEFT WING HIT A TREE CAUSING SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE TO THE AIRCRAFT. PRIOR TO THIS FLIGHT THE PILOT HAD CHANGED HIS OWN OIL AND FAILED TO GET THE NEW OIL FILTER ON PROPERLY, ALLOWING OIL TO BLOW OUT. THE PILOT STATED THAT ON RUNUP, THE PROPELLER 'ACTED SLOW' HOWEVER HE ASSOCIATED THIS WITH THE COLD WEATHER.
