Factual narrative

AFTER THE STUDENT MADE A FULL STOP LANDING ON A 3000 FT RWY, HE STARTED TO TURN AROUND & BACK TAXI TO THE APCH END TO TAKEOFF; HOWEVER, THE INSTRUCTOR (CFI) TOLD HIM TO MAKE A SHORT FIELD TAKEOFF FROM WHERE HE HAD STOPPED. A TAKEOFF WAS INITIATED WITH ABOUT 1400 FT REMAINING. AT ABOUT 100 FROM THE END OF THE RWY, ROTATION WAS INITIATED. AS THE ACFT WAS ROTATED, THE STALL WARNING HORN SOUNDED. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, BRUSH WAS HEARD SCRAPING ON THE BOTTOM OF THE ACFT. THE CFI TOOK CONTROL & TRIED TO RECOVER FROM THE STALL, BUT THE ACFT AGAIN IMPACTED THE BRUSH & SUBSEQENTLY CAME TO REST ABOUT 300 YARDS PAST THE END OF THE RWY.
