The main guy who trained me after college always said the punch looked much stronger and that's what I have typically done.

The punch came into the NFHS signal chart either in 2005 or 2006. In the summer of 2006 I was at a college camp and did a punch for an illegal screen. After the game our muscular observer asked me what the hell that was. My partners even chimed in that it was the new FED signal for TC control foul. Observer (remember college camp) said he didn't like it, he preferred just pointing the other way. So that has subconciously stuck with me ever since and I haven't been able to incorporate the punch into my mechanics.
