Wiff

To just barely miss the intended goal. To make a mistake, but being very close to actually achieving the intended objective.

I wiffed the shot - it hit the post of the goal.

I wiffed question three on the exam. I forgot to carry the one in the math.

The sniper just wiffed the tin can with his bullet.

Stinger

A spike strip used to impede or stop the movement of a vehicle by puncturing the tires. Spikes, pointing upwards, are affixed to a pipe or rail. As the vehicle rolls over the spikes, they are punctured.

The police deployed the stinger to stop the criminal in the stolen car.
