Chris,
Like some of the others have said "keep it simple." I too got back into archery via the traditional route and was hasty in picking a bow to purchase. I ended up with a real shooter, a take-down with two sets of limbs in different weights and lengths. And now after nearly eight years, I've really started seeing beauty of a single stick, be it a recurve or a longbow. There's just something inspiring about them. And the lack of weight has it hands down over the take-down. And to tell you the truth, I haven't taken mine down in several years now.
As far as the rest goes, the shelf is were it's at my friend. Get as close to your hand as possible, you'll never regret it.
Welcome back and enjoy the Trad journey!
