RV4 3pt vs wheel landings

Where can I get more informatin about "3 point" vs "wheel" landings in the Vans RV4 ? I have read the "Compleat Taildragger" and he says you must do "wheel" landings for high crosswind, but then many articles in Plane&Pilot say many taildraggers are fully controlable down to full stall 3 point landings and wheel landings may never be needed.. my RV4 seems to be one of those (so far ..) I sure would like more input as I only have about 50 hrs in taildraggers... all RV4 stories and opinions would be welcome. Thanks.. DA in GA I just got back from some tail wheel training with the most experienced RV instructor in the world and he is a big promoter of the 3 point landing with tailwheel RVs even in crosswinds
