Approach speed

In the PA28-140 I fly with slab wing,I was instructed to approach at 80 mph,don't chop the throttle before the flare but leave it at a fast idle 900/1000 until you are down to control the sink.Have used this quite succesfully in all conditions.Will stay at flap 25 if gusty/xwind as this is what I was taught.
