I call traveling like any other violation. If I see it clearly, I call it. If I have to guess, I will not call it. Do I have games where I feel I miss them? I sure do. But I do not go around acting like because they are not called to my liking, I know better than everyone or ignore them. Heck in some cases I call them when no one agrees with me. But I describe exactly what I saw and do not call what I "think" happened. And these plays are not always easy and not easy when you are trying to focus on contact or plays where contact is part of the move. You might pass on something if you feel they did not do it on their own or the contact was a part of the play. And it is also hard when sometimes the ball leaves your view. I am more upset when I see no control by a ball handler but a travel is called. Those drive me crazy much more than if the pivot foot moved slightly.
Peace
