DENVER (March 14, 2023) – Renovation Hunters is a new Outdoor Channel original series where home improvement meets the outdoor lifestyle airing Fridays at 8:30 p.m. ET. Hosted by Hal Shaffer, hunter and outdoorsman, this series is dedicated to preserving the family tradition of the outdoors. Their mission is to ensure hunting, fishing or vacation camps can be passed on to the next generation.

The talented crew of Renovation Hunters is made of home improvement specialists from all over the United States who love both their craft and the outdoors. Once they select a property, they dedicate their skills for a solid week to do whatever it takes to ensure that family camp is the place where memories will continue. See the trials, mishaps and fun, as Renovation Hunters comes to small towns to preserve family camps so everyone can enjoy the great outdoors again.

Also, listen to Schaffer discuss the process of selecting the camps to be renovated on Outdoor Trails Network. The selection process is based on compelling video submissions. They go to work putting together a design that caters to the way the owners use the property, a truly custom design experience. This design is kept a secret from the owners until the camp is unveiled at the completion of the project. Renovations of this caliber, and under this kind of time restraint, require a team of specialized craftsmen. Schaffer discusses the fantastic team of pros they have in place and the incredible sponsors they have that make the 8-day renovation possible.

DENVER (March 13, 2023) – More than a decade ago, brothers Chris and Casey Keefer ventured north to the Brooks Range of Alaska to film 'Dropped' – and now they return with Dropped: Project Origin airing Fridays at 8 p.m. ET on Outdoor Channel.

The original ‘Dropped’ pushed the brothers' mental and physical limitations to the very edge as they attempted to survive stringent and taxing conditions in the extraordinarily isolated Alaskan bush. Chris and Casey journey back to where it all began to discover if their drive to survive has remained the same and to see if they still have what it takes to provide for their own basic human needs.

Listen to Chris Keefer talk about what makes this season of "Dropped" different from their first experience in the Brooks Range on Outdoor Trails Network. He discusses the challenges of hunting and the logistics of meat care while living off the land. Chris also talks about safety while off grid and close call situations. Plus, he explains what it's like to be so far from civilization and how disconnecting from the rest of the world helps him reconnect with what's important.

Next Series Event is February 25 with Hoyt/Easton Pro/AM

DENVER (February 23, 2023) – Once again the Delta/McKenzie Archery Shooters Association (ASA) Pro/AM Tour is launching its six-event 2023 season in partnership with Outdoor Sportsman Group and its linear networks, digital and social channels. The first event kicks off this Saturday, February 25 with the Hoyt/Easton Pro/Am at 5 p.m. on Sportsman Channel.

Outdoor Sportsman Group (OSG) – the world’s largest aggregator, creator and distributor of outdoor lifestyle content – has re-signed as the official multimedia distributor of the Delta/McKenzie Archery Shooters Association (ASA) Pro/AM Tour. Events will be presented to the public via broadcast linear programming, digital and social channels (Sportsman Channel, MOTV and Sportsman Channel Facebook page). OSG will continue to showcase monthly tournaments throughout the spring and summer, with the final tournament on August 5 on Sportsman Channel.

The ASA, established in 1994, was formed to call attention to the sport of archery by providing a series of tournaments for highly-skilled participants. The concept has evolved to the point where Sportsman Channel agreed to televise tournaments in a six-month schedule in 2021, renewed that pact for the 2022 tournament season, and now the 2023 season. Each Delta/McKenzie ASA Pro/AM tournament can draw up to 2,000 amateur and professional archers from all over the world.

The ASA “Pro Pressure Point Shootdowns” are the highlight of each national Delta/McKenzie ASA Pro/AM tournament. After two days of competition in the field, the top five archers in each of the four professional divisions square off on a special, five-target field set up with stadium seating and Competition Archery Media’s broadcast cameras.

Each archer shoots an arrow at one of five targets to add to their two-day cumulative score from the weekend. If needed, a sixth arrow also is shot to determine the final podium positions. This phase of the competition features the added pressure of archers performing in front of hundreds of spectators on the field with broadcast cameras following their every move.

The following is a list of each remaining tournament with air date. Viewers will see the shootdowns broadcast live on Sportsman Channel at 5 p.m. ET on each of the following dates:

Feb 23 – Feb 26: Hoyt Easton Pro/Am (Foley, AL)
Mar 30 – Apr 2: Elite Archery Pro/Am (Russell County, AL)
Apr 27 – Apr 30: Easton Hoyt Pro/Am (Camp Minden, LA)
June 1 – June 4: TRU Ball – Black Eagle Pro/Am (London, KY)
Jun 29 – Jul 2: Mathews Archery Pro/Am (Metropolis, IL)
Aug 3 – Aug 6 : Delta McKenzie Classic (Cullman, AL)

Sponsors of the Delta/McKenzie ASA Pro/AM 3D Live Tournament include: Elite Archery, Hoyt, Easton, TRU Ball/Axcel, Black Eagle and Mathews. For more information on Sportsman Channel and the Archery Shooters Association, visit: www.asaarchery.com.

MeatEater is Part of Outdoor Channel’s “Taste of the Wild” Block Monday Nights

DENVER (February 20, 2023) – MeatEater with Steven Rinella has been a perennial favorite with Outdoor Sportsman Group viewers since its debut nine years ago. As Rinella eloquently puts it, the show is not just about the pursuit of an animal, but who Rinella is as a person and what he’s made of to pursue that animal. Part Two of MeatEater Season 10 returns to Outdoor Channel tonight
at 8 p.m. ET.

Growing up in the Midwest’s great outdoors – hunting, fishing and trapping from a young age – Rinella always viewed the world through the eyes of an ancestral hunter/gatherer. Rinella has made his life’s work of being mindful of conservation principles and practices, as well.

In MeatEater, Rinella explores various hunting techniques, tracks and pursues prey, and procures and cooks his own food. Whether tracking blacktail deer in the remote Alaskan wilderness, or rooting out javelina in Texas, Rinella leverages his back-country skills, challenging himself at every corner while providing nail-biting adventure along the way.

Steven Rinella is an avid outdoorsman, writer, and television personality best known for his ability to translate the hunting lifestyle to a wide variety of audiences. His weekly MeatEater podcast (distributed on Apple Podcasts, Google Play, Spotify and Stitcher) is the most popular podcast in the outdoor category on Apple. He is the author of six books including: “MeatEater: Adventures from the Life of an American Hunter;” the two-volume series “The Complete Guide to Hunting;” “Butchering and Cooking Wild Game;” “American Buffalo: In Search of a Lost Icon;” “The Scavenger’s Guide to Haute Cuisine” and the forthcoming “MeatEater Fish and Game Cookbook: Recipes and Techniques for Every Hunter and Angler” (Nov. 20, 2018). His articles have appeared in publications such as: Field and Stream, Men’s Journal, Outside, Men’s Health, The New York Times, Bowhunter and the anthologies Best American Travel Writing (2003, 2010, 2014 and 2016) and Best Food Writing (2005, 2013). He is a frequent guest of television and radio, has appeared on NPR’s All Things Considered and Weekend Edition, The Joe Rogan Experience podcast, HBO’s Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel, Fox and Friends and CNN’s American Morning.

DENVER (February 17, 2023) – One of the most knowledgable trappers today, Alan Probst, takes viewers into the history and skill of trapping fur animals in North American Trapper, airing Sundays at 1:30 p.m. ET on Sportsman Channel.

This series helps viewers achieve their own outdoor successes through education and instruction on viable trapping methods. These methods will help with predation control on hunting properties and more. Probst shows methods that are ecologically and environmentally sound, plus gets into the deep ancestry of trapping.

Alan Probst grew up in the outdoors with a family tradition that traces back to his great-grandfather, who was a hunter, trapper and lure maker. Think about it: rifle hunters can shoot an animal at ranges of 600 yards and even further. Bowhunters generally shoot animals at 20 to 40 yards. In short, hunters have a lot of flexibility when it comes to getting an opportunity to shoot an animal. Trapping, however, is much more precise and leaves far less room for error. In order to successfully trap an animal, they usually have to step inside a one or two-inch square area. It's this challenge that gave Probst the "fever" at just seven-years-old after trapping his first muskrat and the same "fever" that has driven his passion for trapping ever since. This kind of precision that trapping requires can make people think that it's too complicated or difficult so they write it off without trying.

Watch North American Trapper on Sportsman Channel on Sundays at 1:30 p.m. ET.
