No I don't put my fist. I may put my had up to stop the clock (violation signal) and then assess the tech, but that was when I first started. Yes i know its not in the mechanic books. Now if a tech happens i usually just blow my whistle with two sharp blasts(tweet, tweet) and follow that procedure I use in the last post. I suggest do what makes you feel comfortable. If you are now go by the book and be mechanically correct in everything. I'm in my 5th season of high school and 3rd season of a college. I mostly now use my college mechanics in the h.s game because its just 2nd nature from me. I'm not big timing or anything, i just feel more comfortable using them. As you begin to move up or have established your self in the local association for a no. of years you begin to develop your own style which makes you look strong. This is just my opinion and what i have experienced in my officiating career.
