As Chase says you can use the 5 bar for both. Here is a link to the official rules if you want to check those out too.

Now,

I'm a converted (by Catholic nuns) lefty, so I reserve shooting 5-bar shots for my very best friends when they are on the opposite side of the table, and for my very worst most-despised opponents.

I think you have to study the habits of sadistic serial killers to learn to focus and shoot 5-bar shots very well, especially against people you like & respect! There is no expression like on that of a goalie you just keep smoking with 5-bar shots, and not expecting any of it. Especially at 4-all, or at its actual best, right after you call a timeout while way ahead, 4-0.

Wait, let me take that back, that same expression as on a newbie prison inmate after he gets introduced the first night to BadBad Big Bubba's & Sickie AxeHead's Intimate Social Graces and Nightly Repartee club at the local penal institution. His new friends will surely be totally behind him, all the way!! This is the exact facial expression you are looking for!

Why 5-bar? Coz it's there! Enjoy!!

And when the ball slops in to your opponents' goal for a "skunk" 5-0 game after a hack 5-bar shot? There is no sweeter way to score on people you look up to & admire!

ya, but everytime after you score a 5bar shot you have to scream out your last name. It's in the rules.

We in New Hampshire just lean forward about a good foot to a foot in a half and say take that you dirty SOB (with a very aggressive voice). Well not really just wanted to see how cool my Avatar looked.

Thanks All
