bushnell®an industry leader in performance optics, along with Hoppe’s®, the #1 name in gun care products, congratulates professional shooters Jessie Harrison, KC Eusebio and Maggie Reese on their impressive performances representing Team USA at the 2022 IPSC Handgun World Shoot XIX. The competition was held from November 27 to December 3, 2022 in Pattaya, Thailand.
Harrison, a Bushnell and Hoppe’s sponsored shooter, helped her team take home the gold medal in the Ladies Open Team division. In the Ladies Open singles competition, Harrison took an impressive second-place finish using the Bushnell First Strike 2.0 reflex sight. Meanwhile, Bushnell and Hoppe’s teammate Reese competed in the Production Division and helped her team take home the bronze medal. In the men’s singles competition, Bushnell Pro Eusebio placed fourth overall in the Open division using a prototype of a new Bushnell red dot against a stacked field of competitors.
“After waiting five years for this competition, Thailand delivered one of the best world championships I have ever had the privilege of photographing,” said Harrison. “Representing the United States of America on the biggest platform available in the sport will always be the greatest honor! We are bringing home the gold medal for the Ladies Open Team and I couldn’t be more proud. This is by far the best team I have ever competed with, each lady bringing a skill and talent to the team that was needed!”
During the match, Harrison used his trusty Bushnell First Strike 2.0 reflex sight. Harrison has used the legacy red dot throughout the 2022 season, helping her with multiple wins on the regional, national and world circuit. Harrison believes the red dot objective’s large lens and bright daylight illumination settings make it perfectly suited for fast-paced action pistol competitions.
Eusebio, who competed in the individual Open division, chose to wear a Bushnell red dot that has yet to be released. Eusebio has been working with Bushnell during the development of the new dot and is excited to continue racing with him through the 2023 season. The new red dot will make its official debut in January.
“Bushnell’s new red dot prototype performed above and beyond my expectations,” said Eusebio. “This dot has everything I’ve been looking for, from a great field of view and robust housing to clean, clear glass with a sharp, perfect dot. I am absolutely in love with him.”
Eusebio continued: “I had a lot of people asking about the new point and wanting to know more details. However, all I can tell you is that you will just have to wait and see what Bushnell has in store.”
