Taildraggers have two methods of landing, 3 pointer - stall it on, or wheel it on landing. it can keep you amused for hours just trying to perfect each method. Nose wheel have the one method, mains first.
Why can't you do a 3-pointer with a trike? Just takes practice. Personally, I like to land on the mains, then continue to taxi down the runway while keeping the nose wheel up and then take-off again for another touch and go. Great fun!
I find a trike gear easier on ground handling. Some tail wheel planes simply do not like to turn on windy days until the tail wheel lifts. I guess it's all just a matter of personal preference. I have both and enjoy both.
