In my recurve days, I drew with 3 fingers, then dropped my 3rd finger off the string at full draw, before releasing. Looking down the arrow gets your side to side lined up really well. You only need to adjust for distance after that. I can't seem to shoot a longbow comfortably that way though. Now, it's a more deliberate slow draw, then a release shortly after I get to the corner of my mouth.
Good luck this season!
