Brian Beaman
August 2008
Brian Beaman
Age: 24
Hometown: Selby, SD
Event: men's air pistol
There would seem to be a big jump from being a bowhunter to earning a spot on the U.S. Olympic Team as an air pistol shooter, but Brian has made that leap. His love of shooting started with archery and then in college he shot for the Jacksonville State University rifle team. But then in 2007 he finished second in air pistol at the nationals and finished fourth at a World Cup event in Pilzen, Czech Republic, and he was on the fast track as a USA Shooting team member. He grabbed his Olympic spot by finishing second at this year’s Olympic trials.
