Take the soft approach

I love it when in pool you get those shots that you can just tap ever so softly and you pocket the ball. When you’re just starting out, it’s so tempting to just smash the ball into the pocket, and so satisfying when you can pull it off. But that takes a lot more practice than simply tapping the ball in, and oftentimes it is complete overkill.

Most of the time it’s best to take the soft, assured route. Being flashy for the sake of being flashy never helped anyone.
