The football player punts the ball. The definition of a punt is a dropping of a ball to be kicked before it touches the ground. An example of a punt is a football player kicking the ball to his teammates. Punt is defined as to put an idea aside or to drop a football and kick it before it hits the ground.
A punt is a flat-bottomed boat with a square-cut bow, designed for use in small rivers or other shallow water. Punting refers to boating in a punt. The punter generally propels the punt by pushing against the river bed with a pole. A punt should not be confused with a gondola, a shallow draft vessel that is structurally different, and which is propelled by an oar rather than a pole.
