My suggestion would be to not do this. Ever. This is what separates us from the spectators. Spectators make calls based on what they think they see. Referees make calls based on what we actually see.

If you don't see it, you can't call it. What if your partner doesn't see it either, and it was a perfectly legal play? As referees, we miss things on occassion. Sometimes we miss them at very inconvenient times. It's all part of the job.
