pots

we all know that you cant use clear hoppers because it can be confusing for refs...i was just wondering why this hasnt been extended to clear pots....the only reason i can come up with is the fact that the hit usually extends to your pack as well

I guess because it is mostly covered by the pack anyway it's never really been an issue.

I suppose beacuse most packs cover the majority of the pod

I assume that you have clear pots and the ref just reacted to what he observed.
I don't think it is practicable to expect refs to touch the paint mark to see if it is inside or outside the pot but it does offer support to why we banned clear hoppers from tournament use.

Call it lesson learned - for both of you

hold the phone

unless blatenly obvious when i ref i always check to make sure its a hit by rubbing it. it gives me the chance to make sure its a hit then show them my hand and go "dont even try it buster"
