In your pregame, talk about this situation and come to an agreement on how it is to be answered.

booker - In LL, their mechanics show doing just that, however, not in ASA. I have to make a call, then, if I confer with my partner and the information he gives me leads me to believe my call was in error, I have no problem changing it. Bottom line: I want to get the call right. Changing a call from a "missed" one to a GOOD one will never make you look "bad."
