THE STUDENT PILOT WAS ON HIS FIRST FLIGHT TO THE "BAR J LAZY V" RANCH. HE SAW A GROUP OF BUILDINGS WHICH HE BELIEVED TO BE ON THE RANCH. NEARBY WAS A FIELD THAT APPEARED TO HAVE BEEN BLADED TO REMOVE GRASS CLUMPS. HE PROCEEDED TO MAKE A FULL FLAP LANDING ON THE STRIP. AS HE WAS FLARING TO LAND, HE REALIZED THAT HE WAS OVER A STRIP OF PLOWED GROUND. THE PLANE TOUCHED DOWN ON THE MAIN GEAR AND ROLLED UNTIL THE NOSE WHEEL TOUCHED AND DUG IN.
