To me it feels like the Arrow just doesn't want to leave the ground and even on the first seconds of initial climb-out the stick needs brutal force (compared to others) to keep the nose where u want it ... any other C182 or TB20 would have stalled within seconds if u'd pulled the stick like that
However i don't have experience on a Cherokee or any other P28 so i can't compare it to that...
So you didn't trim it correctly for take-off, and it's very reluctant to stall.
I do find the forces in the Arrow a little higher than the Warrior, but not unacceptable at-all. Both are very hard to stall, which is hardly grounds for criticism.
