What do you do to the gear after landing in a Bonanza?
After doing T&G's during my PPL training in an Archer, I never do them
now in a Bonanza, only S&G if runway lenght and traffic allow. In fact,
I don't touch the configuration until STOPPED, either on the runway or
clear of the runway, then raise flaps (identify FLAP handle, not GEAR
handle), reset trim, open cowl flaps, etc.

If I'm in a bonanza, I'll do full stop, as there are a lot of things
you have to do (gear, etc), plus the hobbs only runs when weight is not
on the gear. So taxi time is free, so why not? You get to log that
time.

If I'm in a Charokee, I'll do mainly T&G unless traffic or runway
legnth becomes a factor. In a simple airplane, all you need to do is
pretty much retract flaps.
