I, Like you got tired of all the gadgets and to be honest, was shooting my compund so much that I lost the feel for the challenge. I took the plunge by asking some questions here like you are and also got some good books on traditional archery and instinctive shooting. I then searched and watched E-bay to find a low weight bow at a good price. I ended up with a 40 pound pull at 28". I am also very similar to to you, in that I am 6' tall and draw 30" at 60 lbs on my coumpund. Althought I just got my recurve about two weeks ago, I absolutely love shooting it. I mentioned in another post how enjoyable the simplicity is. It is a whole new world of challenges, but at the time you don't have to think about all the little things. I focus on the spot and let her fly. Just take the plunge, you sound like you are already talking yourself into. No TIme like the present.
