What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(-23) Pilot was flying alone practicing takeoffs and landings and noticed difference in the handling characteristics of the aircraft without the weight of her normal 250 pound passenger. The landings were continually bouncing once the wheels contacted the runway. During approach the aircraft bounced on the runway and came down hard on the nose gear striking the propeller on the runway surface. Both propeller tips bent aft and the nose gear fairing was destroyed. The pilot decided to "go around" and while climbing for another approach noticed the aircraft had decreased climb performance. The pilot made a successful approach, landing and shut down without further incident.
