I used to shoot with only the index and middle, and it worked quite well - 560 FITA 18's, 600 FITA 720's, and the only problem was that I had too much pressure on the fingers at over 40lbs. The scores above were shot with 36 and 38, at which I had no pain at all. I also saw a very experienced archer shooting 620 FITA 720's with only the middle and ring fingers, when asked why he said that he'd hurt the index and found that it made no real difference.

I'm not the first to say this, but if it works for you...

Just make sure it doesn't hurt, hurt is bad.
