Narrative:

This report is in regards to my landing incident at ZZZ1 on apr/sat/05. WX briefings were obtained the night before the flight as well as prior to departure from ZZZ. While en route to ZZZ3; I made an interim stop at ZZZ1. Strong gusty surface winds from the northeast were forecast along my route. AWOS at ZZZ1 confirmed northeast winds gusting to 27 KTS. I was cleared by the tower to land on runway 5. The aircraft bounced and began to porpoise. The nosewheel collapsed and the aircraft came to rest. After shutting off fuel and ignition; I exited the aircraft. I contacted the tower on a handheld xceiver. Airport personnel were quickly on the scene. The NTSB and FAA were called with help locating numbers from FSS. The aircraft was removed from the runway after permission from the NTSB. Inspection of the firewall was intact. I was the sole occupant of the aircraft and sustained no injuries. I chose ZZZ1 to land because the winds were down the runway. I was fully aware of the forecast and the winds prior to landing. I had never experienced a significant bounce or porpoising before. I have landed in these types of winds before. My reaction to the bounce and subsequent porpoising was too slow. It was all over in 4-5 seconds. In order to not have this happen again; I need to anticipate the possibility before it happens so that I am in a position to react quickly with power -- much like a multi-engine pilot prepares himself for an engine loss prior to takeoff. I think I learned a lot from this.

Title: AN M20G NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED AFTER THE ACFT PORPOISED ON LNDG IN GUSTY WINDS.

Narrative: THIS RPT IS IN REGARDS TO MY LNDG INCIDENT AT ZZZ1 ON APR/SAT/05. WX BRIEFINGS WERE OBTAINED THE NIGHT BEFORE THE FLT AS WELL AS PRIOR TO DEP FROM ZZZ. WHILE ENRTE TO ZZZ3; I MADE AN INTERIM STOP AT ZZZ1. STRONG GUSTY SURFACE WINDS FROM THE NE WERE FORECAST ALONG MY RTE. AWOS AT ZZZ1 CONFIRMED NE WINDS GUSTING TO 27 KTS. I WAS CLRED BY THE TWR TO LAND ON RWY 5. THE ACFT BOUNCED AND BEGAN TO PORPOISE. THE NOSEWHEEL COLLAPSED AND THE ACFT CAME TO REST. AFTER SHUTTING OFF FUEL AND IGNITION; I EXITED THE ACFT. I CONTACTED THE TWR ON A HANDHELD XCEIVER. ARPT PERSONNEL WERE QUICKLY ON THE SCENE. THE NTSB AND FAA WERE CALLED WITH HELP LOCATING NUMBERS FROM FSS. THE ACFT WAS REMOVED FROM THE RWY AFTER PERMISSION FROM THE NTSB. INSPECTION OF THE FIREWALL WAS INTACT. I WAS THE SOLE OCCUPANT OF THE ACFT AND SUSTAINED NO INJURIES. I CHOSE ZZZ1 TO LAND BECAUSE THE WINDS WERE DOWN THE RWY. I WAS FULLY AWARE OF THE FORECAST AND THE WINDS PRIOR TO LNDG. I HAD NEVER EXPERIENCED A SIGNIFICANT BOUNCE OR PORPOISING BEFORE. I HAVE LANDED IN THESE TYPES OF WINDS BEFORE. MY REACTION TO THE BOUNCE AND SUBSEQUENT PORPOISING WAS TOO SLOW. IT WAS ALL OVER IN 4-5 SECONDS. IN ORDER TO NOT HAVE THIS HAPPEN AGAIN; I NEED TO ANTICIPATE THE POSSIBILITY BEFORE IT HAPPENS SO THAT I AM IN A POS TO REACT QUICKLY WITH PWR -- MUCH LIKE A MULTI-ENG PLT PREPARES HIMSELF FOR AN ENG LOSS PRIOR TO TKOF. I THINK I LEARNED A LOT FROM THIS.
