I am always perplexed by the warnings about tail draggers. My first td was a Sweet Stick I converted thirty years ago. My experience is I have less trouble with the ground handling of a td compared to a trike.

Agree
Ditto.
I built my Tiger 2 as a TD. After about 15 solo flights on my Avistar, I maidened the T2 with only my instructor close at hand - just in case. I found the T2 easier to take off, fly and land than the Avistar. Not to mention more fun too! I have since converted the Avistar to a TD and am looking forward to flying that as well this spring.
