The best thing to do here is to keep your air in your stomach area and have a slow and deliberate whistle. People that have these things happen to them, is due to the fact that their whistle is "fast", they anticipate a play happening, or they just freeze up in a situation they have never seen before.
Let the play start, develop and finish and then react appropriately by blowing a whistle or not blowing the whistle.
Now don't take this out of context. This can happen to anybody. Just giving some ideas on how to prevent it. Although I can say it has never happened to me before (knocking on wood as I type).
This is no different than a cheap "and 1" play. We react to the play and blow to soon. (By the way, this has happened to me). This is much more difficult to master. Or we blow on the play because we don't see it all the way from start to finish and we could have held our whistle because the contact was marginal at best. Obviously, the more plays you see, the easier this becomes in both instances of the inadvertant whistle and the cheapy "and 1" plays with minimal contact.
