TARGET, AIM, FIRE Flohr practices shooting on targets in the yard with a bow alongside her cousin. Flohr had to undergo hunter safety training before she could start hunting to ensure the right precautions were being taken. “Even experienced hunters can make a miss-hit, where you accidentally wound an animal when you hit it,” said Flohr. “That is why we practice constantly and have very strict rules to make sure no one gets hurt and we aren’t accidentally wounding them.”
