Hi Thomas,
I do. Remember that there is more than one axis of rotation on “angle”.
- I strike the string with a slightly leading edge on the pick. This comes from the angle I am gripping with fingers. Striking perfectly flat will brighten the sound a bit with a slap, and feels a little like my fingers are straining to maintain the position.
- I rotate my forearm a bit to get it to slide across without catching under a string between up and down strums
- I try to keep the pointy part generally aimed directly toward the body of the guitar.
