Narrative:
I conducted a flight ending at a private airfield. Prior to the initiation of the flight; I visited the airfield and evaluated the condition of the weather; airport; and its environment as it pertained to the safety of flight. I immediately returned to the [originating] airport and relocated a piper PA-32-300 to the private grass strip approximately 6 miles east. The closest reporting weather was [the originating airport]; where field conditions were reported as 100% wet. Due to its proximity; it was interpolated that the conditions of the private field; which had no weather reporting station; would have comparable runway conditions. The landing distance available at the airstrip was greater than the landing distance required for the flight given the aircraft weight and conditions. I made a normal approach to landing. After touchdown; I used appropriate braking procedures. The aircraft did not respond as expected and subsequently overran the end of the runway.
