No Lanyard?

[Dennis Flannery]

I have done this on occasion. It is only when it is a very big game, and my partner is wet behind the ears. The reason that I f=do it, is to slow down. Everytime that I have a call, I have to tuck the whistle into my sansabelt pants and make the call, then get the whislte out again and go. I don't reccommend this practice to everyone, there might be times when you lose your whistle to the floor.
