Thanks guys for all the comments. It really is funny how the more complicated we make things, the less enjoyment we usually get out of them. I think that holds true for many aspects of life, not just archery. I'm completely addicted to traditional archery now; I've already sold all my wheel bows and a few guns and have started to plan out my next custom bows.
There's just something so simple and satisfying about using traditional equipment. All my friends laughed that I picked up a recurve, and now most of them are eating tag soup and I have meat in the freezer.
