If you are handing the ball then you step back a step or two based on the gym and watch the thrower and the defender closely if they are defending the throw. I would also start later on the count than early. And I will never give an audible count no matter if I am asked to do so or not. I do try to have the chop arm away from the thrower, but I admit I do not always do that mechanic.

Exactly.

There are a lot of personal opinions in this area that are often pushed as the "right" way.

If an official can't keep the player from grabbing the ball no matter which hand you hold the ball in, they might want to visit the weight room a few times.
