In general with the dozen or so tailwheel types I've flown (but don't even know what an ALMS Savage looks like), then when taxiing downwind tend to keep elevators neutral if the wind is above anything light (5-10kts).
How light a tail is the Savage? It's difficult to give hard and fast rules. And beware of bar-room pundits! Some tailwheel aeroplanes sit so heavy on the tail that you have to push the stick forward with power to lighten the tailskid to get a turn started.
Perhaps think as you go of how much power you are using. If on a smooth tarmac taxiway with little power needed then you are getting little propwash. However uphill on a grass surface, then you've got quite a bit of propwash.
You could even try a test. Position the aeroplane facing downwind ( a reasonable wind), chocked and with a restraint to stop the tail rising, then try moving the stick to see what effect it has.
