I'm exactly the same Rob.
I use the same weight limbs indoors and out (finance is another factor, lol), because when i've tried lower poundage bows my body doesn't work right, lol.
I find 48# comfortable and I have a rock steady draw, bow arm ect, but I find 36# uncomfortable and my form quickly falls to pieces.

I suppose the only way to get around this is to re-learn putting the weight back onto your back. Or to think about it conciously as you shoot.
