Shooting an approach

Hello !
I am currently reading a book about IFR flying.
"The complete advanced pilot" by Bob Gardner.
In the book, i came across the term
"to shoot an aproach"
What does that mean ?
Can anybody please explain ?
Hi Henning,
Yes, an approach is an IFR procedure for descending to within a few hundred feet
of the runway, so that a landing can be made visually.
To "shoot" an approach is to perform the approach procedure.
