No reattempt here if he misses.



However, if the horn sounds simultaneously while the shooter is in the act of shooting, and the ball is released before I can whistle it dead, I will consider giving him a another try.



To not do so would be unfair to the shooter, who didn't do anything wrong. I can penalize a defensive player on the lane making a loud sound while the shooter is in the act of shooting by calling a delayed violation.



I can't penalize the table crew for sounding the horn at the same instant that the shooter is in the act of shooting, releasing it before I can whistle it dead, but I can as sure as hell give him another try if he misses.


If the horn sounds, I'm getting the ball back from the shooter and readministering.
