Series Continues to Inspire Countless Bowhunters with Host, Curt Wells

DENVER (July 15, 2024) – Bowhunter TV, a pioneering show dedicated to the art and adventure of bowhunting, proudly marks its 20th season on Outdoor Channel this summer airing Thursdays at 10:30 p.m. ET. This milestone celebrates two decades of capturing the bowhunting experience in a truthful, documentary style that has captivated audiences and inspired countless bowhunters across the globe.

Launched in late summer of 2004, Bowhunter TV was the brainchild of the “Bowhunter Magazine” team, led by current President & CEO Mike Carney, and the late Editor Dwight Schuh. The show was initially produced by Larry D. Jones, a pioneer in hunting videos, known for his work on "Elk Fever." Together, they set out to document the ingenuity and determination that define the bowhunting spirit.

Curt Wells, who famously crossed a river using a homemade cable car to access a remote spot in Minnesota to get the show’s first Pope & Young class whitetail during season one, continues this tradition as the host today. His commitment to showcasing the genuine bowhunting experience has established Bowhunter TV as a staple in the hunting community.

Reflecting on the series' evolution, Wells says it is difficult to pick a single memory that stands out as there were so many good moments. “Choosing a favorite moment among 20 years of adventure is tough but several stand out. Like experiencing the true wilderness of the McKenzie Mountains in the Northwest Territories or the wilds of the Yukon, stalking a grizzly in Alaska, and hunting caribou against the backdrop of Greenlandic glaciers. Every hunt has been special in its own way, but finally taking a massive Yukon moose, watching my grandson arrow his first bear, and sharing elk camp in Arizona with my two sons are all highlights among the countless adventures.”

On the show's impact over the years, Wells highlights its educational segments such as “Dead On,” “Better Bowhunter,” and “Moment of Truth.” "Our hope is to leave the viewer knowing something about bowhunting that they didn’t know previously," he adds.

For its 20th season, viewers can expect more of the same thrilling adventures and educational content that have made Bowhunter TV a fan favorite. "We have evolved with the times when it comes to technical advancements," Wells explains. "But it is still about being in the wild, getting close to game, raising our heart rate, and enjoying the bowhunting experience."

When it comes to the future of Bowhunter TV, Wells remains optimistic. "As long as there are people out there who want to become bowhunters, Bowhunter TV will be there to do our part to help make that happen."

Celebrate two decades of bowhunting adventures with Bowhunter TV by tuning in Thursdays nights at 10:30 p.m. ET on the Outdoor Channel and join the community of passionate bowhunters who appreciate the thrill of the hunt and the beauty of the great outdoors.

Bill Jordan and David Blanton Share 30 Years of Memories on Outdoor TV

DENVER (July 11, 2024) – In honor of the Outdoor Channel's 30th anniversary, two of the outdoor industry's most iconic figures, Bill Jordan and David Blanton of Realtree Outdoors, congratulate the outdoor television network. Their insightful exchange offers a deep dive into the evolution of outdoor television, the impact of technological advancements, and the cherished memories that have shaped their careers.

Bill Jordan, founder of Realtree and a pioneer in outdoor television, reflects on the remarkable changes over the past three decades. "You know, one of the neat things for me is seeing the transition in television. We've been in this space for a long time, and while social media has grown, I still love the experience of sitting down and watching a full, 30-minute outdoor show," said Jordan.

Jordan shares that even after over 30 years of producing outdoor TV, he's still within his original goals of bringing entertaining and educating outdoor TV to hunters. "As I get a little bit older and reflect back, I enjoy what we do here at Realtree Outdoors because I want the young people to see that the outdoors can be entertaining and to get them more involved in the space."

David Blanton, who Bill Jordan brought on to start Realtree's TV video department, shared his unique perspective on how outdoor television has evolved since its inception." When we began Realtree Outdoors on TNN in 1993, which took us three years to get there, we were among the first to show real hunting impacts on national television. This was a game-changer and set us apart," Blanton explained.

But starting a show back then wasn't as cost-effective, as Blanton shared. "The cost of a camera that was high enough quality to pass the requirements to be on national television was the beta SP formats. And they were $40,000 to $50,000 per camera!" Blanton also thinks viewers' tastes have changed over the past three decades. "We've been challenged to do a better job, create more content with more shot angles, use more GoPros, and maybe tell a story better. The average viewer today wants more of the backstory, and so we're trying now to give a little more of the storyline, as opposed to what we may have done in the early days."

Reflecting on his favorite memories, Jordan fondly recalled hunting experiences with his children and celebrity guests like Dale Earnhardt Sr. and Jr., as well as Chipper Jones. "Sharing that first hunting experience with my kids is probably the most memorable. It's just to see the excitement in their eyes and seeing a kid really enjoy the outdoors. And outside of that, it's been hunting with friends like Dale Earnhardt Sr. and Jr. and sharing those stories with our audience. It has been incredibly fulfilling," said Jordan. He continued to share that many fans expressed how 'easy' it must've been to hunt with celebrities. Still, Jordan stresses it's all about the love of the outdoors. "And people say, 'Well, you're hunting with this country singer or that.' You know, that is true. But the message we want to portray is these guys love the outdoors. The outdoors brought us all together. We didn't go after them. They came out to do something and share their passion; it's the same passion we have."

Blanton also reminisced about memorable moments with celebrated personalities like Dale Earnhardt Sr., emphasizing the honor of being part of the Outdoor Channel's remarkable 30-year legacy. "Looking back, one of my favorite memories of Realtree Outdoors was the time we spent with the late Dale Earnhardt. I'll never forget when he came to Georgia to hunt turkeys with Bill and me in the spring, a few days before the Talladega race. He came over to hunt that morning, and the weather was bad. He kept checking with the track to make sure they weren't going to practice, and all of a sudden, we stopped somewhere. He called the track, and they said, 'Dale, we are literally drying the track off. They're about to start practicing' and Dale's sitting over here turkey hunting with us in West Central Georgia. Before you know it, we are flying to the airport. His plane is waiting for him. I've never seen Dale Earnhardt sweating bullets like he was that day because he was about to be late to Talladega only because of a goblin' turkey."

Celebrating the Outdoor Channel's milestone, Jordan expressed gratitude for the platform that has allowed them to share their passion for the outdoors. "The Outdoor Channel has been heaven-sent for us, allowing us to tell authentic outdoor stories. It's given people a chance to see the beauty and excitement of the outdoors," said Jordan. And Blanton agrees, "It's such an honor to be a part of so many incredible personalities, figures, and production companies that put forth award-winning programming on the Outdoor Channel.”
