Just exactly what do you skip? And why? One of those "When in Rome .." things?
I often skip the mechanic, "indicate ... the free throw shooter", at least orally. I tried doing this many years ago and found that on my way to the reporting area I would sometimes confuse the number of the fouler with the foulee. If the shooter is obvious, I skip the mechanic completely. If I believe that my partner will question who the shooter was (rebounding mosh pit, foul away from the ball, etc.), I will point (not the bird dog point, but a finger point) to the shooter, state "shooter", and get a quick look at the appearance (but not the number) of the shooter.
