The best (and most important thing) is that we both really know what each other's bids mean. :P It may not be an optimal meaning, but without any misunderstandings it's hard to screw up bidding too badly.
Many years ago, when I still played bridge (recreationally), my partner and I decided to go the Precision route. We tweaked it, too, and loved playing it. The couple of times we visited the local club, our results weren't great, but not because of our system.
