Default What plane to Buy?

I fly tail draggers off rough dirt runways all the time. You just need to becareful about holding a little elevator to keep the prop out of the dirt. I do not taxi a plane on the rough stuff but I do take off and land on it. I have had the nose wheel bend and then the prop hits so it is not just a tail dragger that will dig holes.
