I am kinda getting off topic here, but I just wanted to show the women here that shooting comps are not just for men anymore.
In a sport generally dominated by men, 18-year-old Lena Miculek is creating a buzz in the competition-shooting world. Between practice shooting, competing in 24 yearly competitions and guest appearances for sponsors such as Smith and Wesson, Miculek has been quite busy lately, but she was kind enough to meet up with us recently at the NRA show in Houston for an interview.
“I honestly don’t remember the first time I shot a gun. I was so young. My first competition was when I was eight, shooting a .22 rimfire handgun, rifle and shotgun from an aerial position. It was a lot of fun,” Miculek said.
Fast-forward a decade later, and in 2012, Miculek won the IPSC Shotgun World Championship in Hungary.
