"I didn't know if I was going to make the shot."
"Then why did you shoot?"
Exactly.
'nough said.
Common sense.
No more dilly dallying.
You gotta stick it in.
You gotta put it in.
No more guesswork.
In the end, you are "putting" that cue ball.
Stroking the cue ball or hitting the cue ball?
It just doesn't quite say it.
It implies or describes what we all know.
But it is only suggestive or minimally descriptive.
Now, "putting" the cue ball seems to me to convey the true sense.
To put something is to directly exercise the will to move something.
It means to manipulate with the hands.
No need to assume or imply anything.
"He made the shot and put the cue ball right there."
You can come into the shape or go out of the shape.
And still get position.
But never forget, you are in total control and you are making something happen.
In the end the balls come to rest and you are responsible.
And you will answer for it.
