OVERLAND PARK, Kan. – December 15, 2022 – Bushnell®, an industry leader in performance optics, along with Hoppe’s®, the No.1 name in gun care products, congratulate pro shooters Jessie Harrison, KC Eusebio and Maggie Reese for their impressive performances representing Team USA at the 2022 IPSC Handgun World Shoot XIX. The competition took place November 27 – December 3, 2022, in Pattaya, Thailand.
Harrison, a sponsored shooter for both Bushnell and Hoppe’s, helped her team bring home the gold medal in the Ladies Open Team division. In the individual Ladies Open competition, Harrison earned an impressive second place finish using the Bushnell First Strike 2.0 reflex sight. Meanwhile, fellow Bushnell and Hoppe’s teammate Reese, competed in the Production Division and helped her team take home the bronze medal. In the individual men’s competition, Bushnell Pro Eusebio took fourth place 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’ve had the privilege to shoot,” Harrison said. “To represent the United States of America on the largest platform available in this sport will always be the greatest honor! We’re bringing home the gold medal for Ladies Open Team and I couldn’t be more proud. This is by far the best team I’ve ever competed with, each lady bringing a skill and talent to the team that was needed!”
During the match, Harrison used her trusted Bushnell First Strike 2.0 reflex sight. The legacy red dot has been used by Harrison throughout the 2022 season, assisting her with multiple wins on the regional, national and world circuit. Harrison believes the red dot’s large objective lens and bright, daylight settings of illumination make it perfectly matched for fast paced action-pistol competitions.
Eusebio, who competed in the individual Open division, elected to use a yet-to-be-released red dot from Bushnell. Eusebio has been working with Bushnell throughout the development of the new dot and is excited to continue competing with it during the 2023 season. The new red dot is set to make its official debut in January.
“The new prototype red dot from Bushnell worked above and beyond my expectations,” said Eusebio. “This dot has everything I’ve been seeking, from its large field of view and robust housing to clean, clear glass with a crisp, perfect dot. I’m absolutely in love with it.”
Eusebio continued, “I had a lot of people asking about the new dot and wanting to know more details. However, all I could tell them is that they would just have to wait and see what Bushnell has in store.”
