Wyoming Bighorn Hunts on Sportsman Channel’s “Sheep Shape” and Swim Jig

DENVER (July 13, 2017) – Outdoor Channel, Sportsman Channel and World Fishing Network hope to entertain and educate outdoor enthusiasts with exciting and original programming during the week of July 17– 23.

Monday evenings on Outdoor Channel begin with four consecutive episodes of Duck Dynasty. Competition is the name of the game this week when Willie’s old rival, Phillip McMillan, challenges him to a game of dodgeball; the ladies take a self-defense class and use John Luke as a punching bag; and Willie helps Jep prepare River for a competitive wrestling league by introducing him to his friend and wrestling legend, Kurt Angle. Next, reasons why tree stand accidents happen and how to prevent them are tested in a “not-to-be- missed” episode of Suvival Science. Dynamic experiments send hosts Nick Mundt and Laura Schara, a stunt team, and special crash test dummies plummeting to the ground.

Later in the week, on Craig Morgan: All Access Outdoors, Craig invites Cincinnati Bengals tight end Tyler Eifert to his home state for a Tenessee turkey hunt. Then, on Nick’s Wild Ride, Nick Hoffman is joined by Kansas Governor Sam Brownback to hunt pheasants in Oakley, Kansas – the place where Buffalo Bill got his name. He eats hamburgers at a legendary local drive-in and learns more about what makes this tiny town tick. The week ends with Will Penny on Friday Night at the Movies – aging cowboy Will Penny gets a line camp job on a large cattle spread and finds his isolated cabin is already occupied by a woman and her young son.

Duck Dynasty (Mondays at 7 p.m. ET)

Monday Night Hunts presented by MidwayUSA jumps into the week in Argentina on Sportsman Channel’s Into High Country With Jason Matzinger. Jason joins his girlfriend Cassandra Chwialkowski, as she spots a mature Axis Buck with her bow for the shot she’s been waiting her entire life to take. Then, Patrick Scrogin takes a tour of the Gunwerks facility and dials in his rifle for 1,000 yards to prepare for his Wyoming Bighorn hunt on Sheep Shape. Finally, on Lock & Load Thursdays, Inland Mfg, a major manufacturer of M1s during WW II, walks viewers through the process of how it has duplicated the Paratrooper model on Guns & Ammo presented by Brownells.
