Tail wheel first landings are not unusual, you just need to be sure you don't give back any of the aft stick once you've arrived so that the aircraft doesn't try to fly again as the AoA decreases when the mains settle on the runway with the tail wheel holding the tail up. Champs and Citabrias tend to be tail heavy and the wing's angle of attack when the aircraft is in a three point attitude is usually less than the critical AoA.
If you compare the Scout to a Citabria you'll notice taller gear and taller tires on the Scout. That partly reflects the intended operation off un prepared strips where greater clearance between prop and ground helps reduce damage to the propeller. However, the taller gear and tire also get the wing much closer to the critical angle of attack, which allows for a shorter ground roll on take-off as the higher AoA allows a lower lift off speed.
For those same reasons, it's common to find 8.0x6 tires and even 8.5x6 tires on Citabrias that are flown off of grass strips. You'll also see the occasional Citabria on 26" to 31" tundra tires if the pilot flies off of unprepared strips. It's not unheard of to also find a Citabria with the taller Scout main gear. In all of these cases, the taller gear and/or taller tires help get the wing closer to the critical AoA when the aircraft is in a three point attitude, which shortens take off roll and reduces to some degree the angle of a tail first full stall landing.
