Is that what we call the unapproved 1 and 1 signal, the longhorns signal? Have to remember that.

Do you point with the same hand and give the longhorn signal to the side to indicate the direction that will be shooting the bonus or to you use the other hand and traffic cop it?

We do the long horn signal while verbalizing the color.

That is what I do. Not a mechanic per say, just a communication tool.

In the same category as the pointing to the line to signify a 2 point try. The same guys that don't want you to communicate this way, are the ones who do not want you to shout guys out of the lane. Avoiding correctable error situations by communicating ahead of time or 'forgetting' who the shooter is because the ball was being taken OOB instead of to the line is for the betterment of the game IMO.

I get my partners' attention, give the "hook em horns" signal while saying "NEXT ONE" and pointing to the proper end of the floor.

I do the same on the ninth foul, except I use the index/middle fingers.

We don't have any schools in this area who don't put the fouls up on the board and I can only remember one time they've been wrong on the board in the area the last few years at the varsity level.

Either or...but there is no traffic copping. I keep the signals in front of my torso.
