Default Poor nexstar taking a beating...

Well Ive been solo'ing for a couple weeks now and decided to get a lil more experimental. I was doing full throttle passes over the runway gradually getting lower and lower. Fueled up a couple times and was just going up and down. The last try i was flying with the wind and it was moving pretty good. I brought it lower and lower till "JACK" ,(thats how it sounded), I had touched down at full throttle. I bounced right up into the air and I guess I just hit enough to stop the prop. I tried to gain what altitude I could but couldnt get her back to the runway. It went down in some tall grass/muck and just did a flip. We made our way over and to my amazement no damage. Not even the prop was beat up. Poor thing has got to hate me.
