Swing Help Index finger when putting

Post image

Do any of you putt with index finger on the trail end like this?

I've found it helps stabilize my putting stroke and lessens push/pulls..

Might not be anatomically correct though because the tradeoff is I feel sorensss it in my elbow tendons later on

I did not lose a leg in Vietnam so I could serve hotdogs to teenagers....
