Reply to comment by dotsalicious in TIL that many pro archers use surprise release mechanisms to prevent themselves from anticipating and reacting to the impending impact. by broogernavn
This sounds a lot more how it worked for me. I knew there was an angle involved and would draw the bow with just my index and middle finger under tension, then when I was ready to shoot I'd engage the ring and little fingers too, and pull back with the whole hand. It was still a "surprise" release because I was just pulling smoothly instead of effectively pulling a trigger with my ring finger.

New Jersey is trying to pass a law against vehicle based subscriptions. They make an exception for services with a recurring cost like self-driving where software changes over the life of the car might require fees from a user. But charging monthly for heated seats, hell no!

Some lakes and wetlands too. I'm pretty sure I can identify Crystal Lake and Lake Quannapowitt in Wakefield, and there are larger black areas not far north of them which are just swamps in Lynnfield.
