You think your partner might like to know?



The question was whether a finger in the air was a proper mechanic, or should it be declared. I answered that question. Of course your partner would like to know. I assumed that would be implied since 90 percent of us that read these boards are competent umpires.
I thought you may be in that 10%. JK

I misunderstood, been reading alot of posts this evening.

I thought you were saying to just declare it. I now see that pointing alone is not enough.

It's not hard for me to get confused BTW.
