Half shoot set
The half shoot is a very high speed or high velocity set, that ranges from one to three feet high and is delivered with virtually no arc and parallel to the net, to a hitter, usually the middle hitter.

The "31" like the half shoot basically looks like a long quick set that's being set so that the ball is contacted between Zone 3 and Zone 4 along the net.
