The pilot reported that, during takeoff from a 2,000-ft-long grass runway, "the airspeed indication was not showing a comfortable amount of increase." He aborted the takeoff and applied brakes, but the airplane overran the runway. The left wing impacted a pole, and the airplane came to rest in brush near the runway.
The airplane sustained substantial damage to the left wing.
The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
Probable Cause: The pilot's delayed decision to abort the takeoff from a grass runway, which resulted in a runway overrun and subsequent impact with a pole.
