I concur with your method. It's how I've done it for years. I would only say, don't be in a hurry. We're amatuers. We don't have anyone breathing down our necks. No time constraints. Let's take our time and do every step to a fine honed edge. Don't bore the dog, but don't skip or get in a hurry. That way the dog does it's deal very well.
