My best "short-field" advice is pretty obvious and I offer it to all who fly into my strip:

If you put your wheels down on the threshold, you will be unfazed!

Even with good clear approaches this requires the flare to happen before the a/c is over the strip.

Any tailwind component can really spoil your day up so do watch what the windsock is telling you.
