🎱 SOMETIMES THE BEST THING YOU CAN DO IS STAND BACK UP.
If you get down on a shot and something doesn’t feel right, don’t force it.
Maybe the angle looks different.
Maybe your feet feel wrong.
Maybe your bridge feels awkward.
Maybe you suddenly aren’t sure about the speed or spin.
That hesitation matters.
Too many players stay down because they feel like standing up means they’re overthinking.
It doesn’t.
Sometimes it means your brain caught something before your stroke did.
Stand up.
Reset.
Look at the shot again.
Rebuild your stance.
Then commit.
The few extra seconds it takes to restart are a lot cheaper than shooting a ball you never felt comfortable with in the first place.
If you’re down on the shot and still making decisions…
You’re probably not ready to pull the trigger. 🎱
