Default RE: Balancing a plane with retracts

How about if it is trike gear?
When that nose gear comes down it sure makes the plane nose heavy on landings.
Takeoff isn't so bad because you are retracting them asap.
It takes all the up elevator I can muster to get the plane back on to the ground.
Any suggestions?
