How can anyone contradict what you have witnessed with your own eyes? If people are using the punch signal for charging or PC fouls, that would not surprise me. Considering the fact that many officials work college ball and HS at the same time, I am sure there are going to be cross mechanics and philosophies about those mechanics. I know there is from what I have seen. All I can say is using the punch would not be the proper mechanic for NF games. Your state, area, association could use a mechanic that is not within the confines of the NF Official's Manual.
