From the FAA’s Accident/Incident Data System (AIDS), through its Aviation Safety Information Portal, as reported. The NTSB investigates accidents separately, and its record of an accident is the fuller one. The aircraft is matched to the registry by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry’s history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model.

What happened

The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.

(-23) The pilot related that midway down his Private grass strip he realized he didn't have enough airspeed so he aborted the takeoff. In trying to slow down and stop the aircraft, the aircraft went through a section of wheat field and the right wing hit some bushes.
