Dear Stig,
The difficulty with the Poll questions is that they often can only offer limited "Yes/No" type choices, whereas the issues would often benefit from some discussion.
Barbara is right in that sometimes one has to point. Personally I try to practise both pointing and shooting. Playing singles, of course you have to do both.
In a team game, doubles or triples, the position I play will depend on the skill/abilities of the other players and also the type of game we're playing. If somebody on the team is a better shooter than me, I'm quite happy to let them shoot and I'll point. Conversely, if the others are weaker than me at shooting, then I'll shoot.
If it's a 'serious' game, then it's important to try and get the best shooter as the main shooter, best pointer as main pointer, etc. But if it's a 'fun' or practise game then, providing everybody is happy, why not let any of the players practise any of the roles?
If a player is off-form, then it might be necessary to change roles during a game.
Remember, Philippe Quantais, World Shooting Champion, often players Pointer in a team!
Regards,
Ray
