Landing a warrior

you guys are gonna stall those things.
I land the warrior at 80 kts and 2 notches of flaps.. 57 kts..no way.....short
final is suppose to be 65 kts in a warrior II ..

The PA28-161 POH I had said Vs0 is 44 kts. 1.3 * 44=57, which is the FAA
recommended speed on final approach. That's exactly what my instructor
insisted on when I was doing the short field landings (on a 1500' runway!).

Why would you stall?

POH says: Short Field take-off @ 25deg flap is accelerate and maintain
44-52KIAS (depending on weight) until clear of obstacle. Can't see how
you can stall at 57Kt and 40 deg flap, especially when landing and
coming into ground effect.

Are you really meaning Kts or mph?

Our 1979 Warrior II says 63Kt at threshold and FULL flap (assuming
little X-Wind). Why use higher speed on landing it can only wear the
tyres out and require more braking on a short runway? More speed and
you float.

An accident waiting to happen...
If you are on the runway at 80 kts, how much forward pressure are you
putting on the yoke to keep the wheels on the ground?
