It may be tail heavy, but this is more a function of Idle speed I believe. All planes will come down with little or no thrust. They may come floating down and three point land but they will come down.
He said he was carrying throttle on landing, so messing with the idle adjustment is wrong. Thrust controls altitude, Pitch controls airspeed. He is carrying too much thrust on landing. Simply reduce your throttle on landings!
