worth a shot
The idiom worth a shot means that something is worth trying as there is some chance of success. The phrase may originate from the idea of using a cartridge for one's gun to shoot at a potential target, and judging that the cost of the cartridge is worth the possibility of hitting it. The phrase is often used to express a willingness to try something that may not work, but has no harm in trying.
