This would be the angle of approach right? And my clubhead will be covering this 10-5-E line. Thanks for helping out...

Yes all 'round, Compda.

Just make sure that your Backstroke is very steep...as it must be to maintain the Clubhead Covering of the 10-5-E Delivery Line. It is very easy to lapse into a 'Tracing' mode, and that will result in a Right Elbow that slips back and behind you and a Clubhead that gets too far inside. Extensor Action is a big help here. Make sure you have it from Start Up to Follow-Through.

I got you Yoda. In 12-3-0, Extensor Action is mentioned so many times and after a while I figured its for a reason. Now my left hand is hardly used except when I swing.

When I do 12-5-1 and 12-5-2 as well as 12-1-0, the left hand is just there for the ride. Apply extensor action, right forearm picks up, drive the right shoulder down plane and WHOOSH!

Thanks !!
