Raised hand - or not?

[Danvrapp]

Just attended my first camp this weekend, and it went great. However, most all of the clinicians were telling me something that went against just about everyone else that's given me officiating advice.

When I have a situation where the ball goes OOB, I've always been taught to raise your hand, open palm, to stop the clock, then point the direction that ball's going. These guys were trying to get me to do away with the whole raising of the hand thing, just to point and say the color. Externally, I agreed with them that it felt better and seemed easier, but inside I wasn't too sure that's what HS assigners want to see (...or "not" see?).

Bearing in mind that most of the clinicians were college level, what do you fine folk do at the HS V/JV level?
