Basically the clubface goes in the same direction as the top of the left hand.

So basically I just backhand the putter and feel like the top of my left hand is facing the target throughout the stroke and it's helped quite a bit.

What starts your backswing? Left side, or right? Shoulders or arms? Do you feel right forearm takeaway?

Also, do you consider your stroke a shoulder stroke, using Acc#4?
