I'll then square up my knees, hips and shoulders. I guess the last step is something you don't do. Am I right?

I tend to stand open, but oscillate between 10-5-A and 10-5-E. I like the way Ben walks into the ball with his feet. But, I pay very little attention to my body as my hands are my primary concern. In a miniature version, you can see my point in an arms only putt. I can face the hole or perpendicular to my line and still trace a straight line or stand square to my line. As additional power is necessary, standing "side-saddle" wouldn't be appropriate, but it certainly makes the point about tracing. I encourage people to start with square-square, when building their pattern. For me, so many of these alignments are now on automatic pilot. I was, as Homer said, a very busy person. And it was very conscious, but now many of the alignments have been delegated to the subconscious.
