The pilot reported that during the landing to the first one-third of the runway, the airplane bounced, and the pilot applied full power for a go-around. With the flaps still extended 30°, the nose of the airplane pitched up and yawed to the right. The right wing stalled, and then the right wing tip impacted the runway. The pilot leveled the wings, reduced the pitch attitude, and arrested the yaw. The airplane then departed the runway. The pilot decided to abandon the go-around attempt and closed the throttle. The airplane entered waist-high grass and the left main landing gear collapsed in the soft soil. The airplane rapidly decelerated, remaining upright, and came to a stop. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the left wing and to the fuselage. The pilot reported there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airframe or the engine that would have precluded normal operation.
The pilot’s failure to maintain directional control after an attempted go-around, which resulted in a runway excursion and impact with terrain.
