the one whose tires kept getting bald spots, and the one whose prop get
bent.


Bald spots on landing are usually the result of having ones toes on the
brakes instead of the rudder pedals. This comes from pushing the rudder
pedals by flexing the foot so that the ball pushed against the toe
brakes instead of sliding the heels for and aft to control direction of
the ground roll by pushing the lower rudder pedal portion.
