Default RE: Graupner Extra 300

Guy's,
Lately we've been having some really nice days with little wind.
I'm finding it very difficult to slow this bird down to land. I have often run off the end of strip despite touching down 1ft from the start (and it's a pretty big grass strip).
I read it's coz I run it a good bit nose heavy.
Could this be true!
Would a different prop help slow it down on idle (drag etc).
I am running an ASP75 with 13x6 prop.

Cheers
