The pilot reported, 'Flared too high, when stall horn went off I lowered nose & throttled up. After reflaring, as the mains touched down the aircraft bounced & porpoised.' The pilot reported he gained control of the airplane and continued the flight performing two more touch and go landings. He reported that after he landed and secured the airplane he noticed damage to the propeller. Post accident inspection of the airplane revealed the firewall was also damaged.
