"First time using Flare Sonic Targets, I’ll admit—I didn’t read the instructions and couldn’t get them to stick properly. Total user error! Once I actually followed the guide and mounted them to a solid surface, they worked like a charm. The explosion is loud, clean, and super satisfying. Lesson learned: read the instructions on the pack!"
— Connor M.
