Narrative:
[I was] doing touch and goes. First landing hard/aircraft bounced. Engine did not stop. No in-flight evidence of damage. Completed 5 more touch and goes. On landing; noted that prop tips were curled. Given that I had already completed 4 touch and goes with no obvious problems and engine had not stopped; I elected to ferry the aircraft 30 NM for inspection/repair. If engine had stopped in-flight; plan (as with all engine failures off airport) would have been to activate the aircraft parachute system.
