Just feels more natural to me to have the nose follow my feet's push rather than go against them; I'm weird I guess. Thanks.
Moot, your thinking is not that unusual. Many toys as Atool has presented teach that method of control. A child’s sled comes to mind. As a fight instructor teaching new students to taxi an aircraft with both conventional and non-conventional gear, many at first would attempt to push with their right foot to trun the nose of the aircraft left while taxing.
As a flight instructor I also feel it necessary to correct the many miss statements in terminology about “turning with rudder”. You don’t use the rudder to “Turn” you use “Lift” to turn an aircraft. You do so by Rolling the aircraft in the direction you wish to turn. The fact is that in coordinated flight the rudder is only used to offset Adverse Aileron Yaw. That said, it is ture that you can affect the heading of an aircraft by just holding rudder but to make a 90 degree turn to the right with just rudder holding wings level would take a very long time.
