I don't think there would be enough time for a hand cast. 1/2 hey is 8 and that
leaves 8 for the partner swing. I haven't done a living room walk-thru on this one,
so you might be right. Seems like if there is any awkwardness there, it would be for the
#1 lady, #2 gent.
Thanks for the feedback Jack.
Rich

Don't know if it's been written or not either. One thing I do notice is
that the momentum is going to be wierd for the #2 lady and the #1 gent
to get into the hey. They'll both have to change directions from the
bend the line to start the hey. Perhaps rather than bending the line,
doing a hand cast (lady goes forward, gent backs up) from the line to
the hey would work?

The hand cast or gate or wheel around should take place in A2:
A2: Down hall 4-in-line (4), turn as couples (4); return (4), wheel around
(M back up)

That's what I had in mind.

Isn't the usual timing for a down the hall: down in 4 (6), turn (4), return (6) ?
I like what you are proposing though.

When I've done a dance with a hand cast out of the back up the hall,
it's generally ended up
Down the hall (4 and a bit)
Turn (4 less a bit)
Return (4 and a bit)
Cast (4 less a bit)
The timing can be a bit flexible. In addition, the cast will flow right
into the Hey and so that timing will be a bit squishy too.
