On one hand, there are lots of shakes that send a second checker back giving good gammon chances, so maybe it's too good.  OTOH, the Herd has a four point board and I've got four men back - there's lots of work still to be done so maybe it's not even good enough to double.

And on the gripping hand, I can't figure out whether it's a correct take or not.  Ergo, by Kit's law the double must be correct.
