I have never done it with a skill saw but a long fence is totally opposite of what you want. You want a short fence.

I'll have to give a shorter fence a try.

I use my left hand to press against the edge of the board. I hold the rounded handle of my push stick against the board and lock my thumb under the fence ruler. I never move this hand nearer the blade.

I feed the board entirely with my right hand. My left hand is dedicated to pressing the board into the fence and I'm focusing my eyes on the fence/board contact.

I have a power feed I no longer use.
