Default RE: Pro VS cons of converting to tail dragger?

its basically a matter of opinion really

i converted my Trike to a taildragger, not sure why... i just did, cut the ply landing gear block off the bottom of the fusealge, and moved it forward, then epoxied it there and away you go! (obviously you need to find some way of attaching the tail gear, but mine was pretty simple)

however im not sure if i moved it forward enough as if i dont flair when im landing it likes to tip forward and the prop strikes on the ground (cutting the engine off)
