10 second count, when does it start?

So I'm on the outside of the shooter, whistle in mouth, my right hand up to signal the clock, and I hand A1 the ball with my left hand and begin the count with my left hand. As soon as A2 touches the ball and has control (again, we're assuming for this case that it's at the same time), I chop the clock in. Then should I use the same hand to do the 10-second count or should I use my other hand?

Sorry, I'm still brushing up on my mechanics.

Personally, I do my 10-second count with the hand I chopped the clock.
