My first tailwheel endorsement was a Citabria. I wasn't even taught wheelers, just 3 point touchdowns. I subsequently also flew the Decathlon and Scout. I found the 3 pointers kept me out of trouble, although crosswinds were a bit challenging. Maybe it was a Bellanca thing?
When I was in PNG, it was pure magic watching the old hands wheel a Cessna 185 onto a short uphill strip! They made it look so easy.
