Karen Miles came away from the 2026 National Sporting Clays Championship with five Ladies titles, led by the Ladies High Overall win in the Main Event at the National Shooting Complex in San Antonio.

Miles, a pro shooter for Italian shotshell maker Baschieri & Pellagri, posted 272x300 in the Main Event to finish one target ahead of runner-up Kiersten Sales. Taking third place was Grace Callahan with 268x300.

Miles earned a $6,000 payout for the Main Event HOA Ladies victory. There were 203 women competing in the Main Event.

During the Oct. 17-25 championship, Miles also won the FITASC Ladies title with a 91x100 in the international-rules event and took K-Cup Ladies with 96x100. Plus, her 630x800 NSCA National Championship aggregate secured All-Around Ladies honors.

Perhaps the icing on the cake for Miles was securing this season’s Winchester Ladies Cup Pro championship title with 443x500.

“Winning at Nationals is always special, but to come away with five Ladies championship titles is something I’m incredibly proud of,” Miles said. “Every event presents its own challenges, and success at this level requires confidence in your preparation, your equipment and your ability to execute when it matters most.”

The Nationals are the National Sporting Clays Association’s flagship event. Miles remained sharp through a long week across formats that test a clay-target shooter in different ways, from the 300-target Main Event to FITASC’s parcours layouts.

“To capture five championship titles at an event of this caliber speaks volumes about her talent, dedication and competitive drive,” B&P USA Director of Marketing Christian Hogg said.
