The pilot reported that he over flew the airstrip twice before setting up for final approach. The pilot stated that while on final approach, the airplane was high so he slipped the airplane to descend. The airplane landed within the first 1/3 of the length of the airstrip in a full stall on the main landing gear. The pilot stated that the touch down was on the left side of the centerline due to cones that were placed on the airstrip. The pilot reported that from the point of touchdown to impact with the fence, the airplane was gradually sliding to the left. The pilot tried to correct with right rudder control and braking action, however, the airplane continued to the left and collided with a fence. The pilot reported that the grass airstrip was wet and that the surface was rougher than what he had remembered from previous flights into the airstrip. The pilot reported that there were no mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane at the time of the accident.
