The private pilot was landing a tailwheel equipped airplane on a dry paved runway. During the landing roll-out the aircraft began to weathervane and drift left of runway centerline. The pilot stated he tried to compensate by applying brake and rudder, but the aircraft continued off the runway and ground-looped. Wind at the time of the accident, as reported by the pilot, was from 280 degrees at 8-10 knots. No malfunctions or anomalies were reported with the aircraft's directional control systems.
