"Thumbnail" is the small picture of Runyan I attached to my above post. Then with your palms facing each other, on the putter, turn your right hand 45* clockwise (turned) and roll your left hand 45* counterclockwise (rolled) . Tour grip should now be hard to bend in any direction so everything moves as a assembly. the stroke is made by moving your shoulders. Now as a next step. your right hand fingers are now in front ( closest the hole) and your left hand fingers are behind (away from the hole. pull the backstroke with the right hand and pull the forward stroke with the left hand. For many, pulling is much smother than pushing. You may also want a reverse overlap on the left index finger. Hope that will help.
