Let's assume there's incidental contact allowed only and this happens:
Player A winds up for a shot, Player B has chased them and places their mallet in the path of their swing. As Player A goes to shoot there is mallet on mallet contact. Is it:
1) no foul, incidental
2) foul for Player A, they struck the other mallet
3) fouls for Player B, they caused mallet on mallet by putting their mallet in the path of a swinging mallet.
I know this is all up for debate so I'm just asking for opinions. I think it would be 1) no foul, but it could get complicated trying to see if it was a hook or not (what happens to the post contact could turn in to a hook/tussle to break the mallets free)
