More Questions on Backing Up with Trailer???
A couple of quick questions on backing up. I know there is a lot out there on backing up but my questions might be a little different. I am fairly proficient at backing up and maneuvering my trailer...

When me and the wife got back into camping it had been years since I had used any type of trailer bigger than the one that went on my John Deere mower.
We started off with the 34' travel trailer and went to a parking lot and practiced for an our or so a few times a week and then the backing it back into the yard as well after each practice. I would do a few with only myself trying and then we used walker talkies and she helped. We used cones and lawn chairs to mark out the spaces and we tried it in several spots around the lot so each time was different. Helped a lot to get back into it.
We did the same thing when we got our fifth wheel as I had never pulled one before. After some practice we were pretty good.
We still have issues here and there when we go out.
The backing straight up never works. I've never had a trailer that would go straight back always drifts one side of the other so it's not just you.
Just curious, how many lawn chairs got hurt during training? LOL
