Shooter colors

After looking at this thread here

I was wondering if there are any regulations on the color of shooters. I know mesh can only be one solid color on one side of the mesh. But, seeing there as the numerous shooters cover the mesh , is it legal to fashion the shooters to resemble the ball? Such as have it strung so that there is a white circle formed by the rows for shooters?

I did a quick scan of NCAA and NFHS rule books but didn't see it. I'm pretty sure it's in there (illegal). Both books state, "A crosse that has been altered in such a way as to give an advantage to an individual is illegal."

[sammyduelist]

But would adding shooters be counted as altering it?

Dying the shooter strings to resemble a ball is an illegal alteration in my book according to Riley's cited rule. It may not be much of an advantage, but it's the effort that counts here.

It's like strapping a 75 pound holograph generator to your back that generates a holographic ball in your pocket. Not explicitly illegal, but a tacit violation of "... altered in such a way as to give an advantage to an individual...."

Yes, I do believe that would be acceptable.

Yes, I do believe that (two white, one colored shooter) would be acceptable.

That comment just demonstrates your insensitivity to the difficulties faced by minorities striving to earn fair (read: equal) representation in this game.

Two white and only ONE colored shooter seems adequately diverse to you? For shame you bigoted cracker! I bet you're one of those guys who folds over the tops of your officiating socks so that less black shows, huh?

Someday I will choke on my milk and die because of your jokes :chuckle:

It's the milk, not the observation that causes your respiratory issues.

I recommend Absinthe, pole. Clears your passages like a router. You also might want to describe your upper GI problems to your dad and let him know that the best advice you have gotten so far is that he order some genuine Absinthe online and place it in the fridge so that it falls to hand rather than the bovine stuff.

I have found that Absinthe over Capn' Crunch fuels some of the most memorable days.

I have yet to choke. :devil:

Is it also true that Absinthe makes the heart grow fonder?? :love:

Naw. That's Cialis.

[Longpole5435]

Naw. That's Cialis.
And now, my computer screen is dirty again with milk. You sir, should be perma-banned.

You sir, should be perma-banned.

I'm sure that this is a burning priority topic in the boardrooms of TLC. In one thread I declared that a distinguished, knowledgeable official whose contributions to this community are both salient and incisive is a 'bigoted cracker' and encouraged an impressionable teen to substitute Absinthe for milk on his breakfast cheerios.

If I weren't the only poster conversant in 'Rockwell Hardness'*, I'm sure I would be languishing even now.
