PA-32 flyers: For some reason lately I have been off on flying a good, stable pattern. I’m either too high or too fast coming into the downwind leg, or flying too close to the runway and overshooting final on the base leg. Can’t seem to shake it off and it’s tough to find a good CFI with enough Cherokee Six time to work this out. And I don’t anticipate having one ride shotgun with me anytime soon due to social distancing despite the ridiculously wide cabin.

Does anyone have any good real-world numbers / throttle settings / speeds / techniques etc for the Six that provide consistent results in the pattern?
