Team Blaser’s Rachel Barringer hit 398 out of 400 clays on her way to victory at the 2022 Texas State Skeet Championships, held June 2-5 at the Greater Houston Sports Club in Houston, Texas.

Taking the High Overall title in a field that included 123 men and women, Barringer’s impressive shooting also secured her the Ladies Championship title.

Under sunny skies and temperatures soaring into the 90s, Barringer started the championship with a 97 of 100 in Skeet Doubles and perfect 100 in 12-gauge, as well as runner-up in both ladies’ events. For 20-gauge, she shot another perfect 100 and, after a long shoot-off, won the Texas State Open Championship and Ladies Championship. She also shot 100 of 100 in 28-gauge to win the Ladies Championship. Barringer followed that with a 98 of 100 in .410, good for third place in the ladies’ division.

Her entire performance garnered Barringer the state championship title—the second woman in the history of the Texas Skeet Shooters Association to win this title in the last 50 years.

“I am so honored to hold the Texas State Skeet HOA Champion title,” said Rachel Barringer, who is the Blaser Group’s digital manager. “This has been a goal of mine for many years, and I am truly humbled. This would not have been possible without the endless support I’ve had from my employer and sponsor, Blaser USA, or the confidence I have in my Blaser F3 shotgun and other products I’m using.”

“We are so proud of Rachel’s incredible accomplishments in these competitions,” said Jason Evans, CEO, Blaser Group USA. “She is dedicated to excellence, both in her shooting and profession as our digital manager. We salute her hard work, and also the grit and dedication of the other Team Blaser members who put in outstanding performances at these championships.”
