i would agree with the consensus here - switch to prot, but you MUST get devastate.
only i would recommend picking up devastate AND imp TC. it's too important for tanking to give it up for the 5% crit.
something like

I must share my experience, since I switched to prot at 60, too.
So far, I'm 65, did a few instances, and I really feel more relaxed when questing.
My armory link is this:
http://eu.wowarmory.com/character-talents.xml?r=Nordrassil&n=MordechaiAnd the spec I will have at 70 will be
this, and I am going to keep it for quite a long time.
Opposed to what almost everyone here said, I am leveling using a 1hander + shield, in zerker stance. As you can see I have a decent crit chance, a decent AP, but thanks to the shield, some extra avoidance also. I usually bandage once every 4 or 5mobs, I don't use food buffs, I just keep BS up, spam Devastate and Shield Slam once it's off cooldown, also, I make good use of Victory Rush and Concussion Blow for the extra survivability. I have also tried Dual Wield, and I had to eat every 2 mobs, because of the lack of avoidance, lack of hit rating and low damage. With sword and board, I haven't seen a miss in the last 2 days, and also I haven't died lately.
PS. If you guys wonder why I put 1 point in Tactical Mastery in my build, it's because I hate to lose rage due to stance dancing, and because I like to rush into battle with charge, and since Charge max rank gives 15 rage, it would be a waste of 5 rage.
