July 6, 2017

A Taste of Art, History and Culture on Outdoor Channel’s “Nick’s Wild Ride”;
Sportsman Channel Features Montana Antelope on
“Into High Country With Jason Matzinger” and
Deep Dropping in Costa Rica on World Fishing Network’s “Big Water Adventures”

DENVER (July 6, 2017) – From Montana to British Columbia to Costa Rica, the week of July 10–16 brings Outdoor Channel, Sportsman Channel and World Fishing Network fans on unique adventures around the world.

Outdoor Channel viewers continue “quacking” up with four episodes in a row of Duck Dynasty airing every Monday night. This week, the jokes are on Jep, starting when Jase and Phil make a bet about whether or not humans in a duck blind are visible from the air. Jep buys a drone copter to get a “bird’s eye” view, but ends up losing it in the process. Then, things continue to take a turn when Jep becomes locked inside a storage container after offering to help Si transport it to his backyard. Next, on Outdoor Channel’s new original series, Survival Science, hosts Nick Mundt and Laura Schara experience nature’s fury through storm-generating gear that simulates powerful hurricanes, ice cold winds and swirling tornados. For these experiments, they’ll use current technology that creates massive storms on Hollywood sets.

Then, Craig Morgan joins a veteran from each branch of the military and takes down his biggest buck yet on Craig Morgan: All Access Outdoors. Season Two of Nick’s Wild Ride follows with country artist and host, Nick Hoffman. In this week’s episode, Nick learns not only about art, history and culture, but a little about himself as he immerses in the Native American culture of the Blackfeet Nation in northwest Montana – one of the largest tribes in the United States. Friday Night at the Movies closes out the week with the 1959 Western film, Day of the Outlaw, starring Robert Ryan as Blaise Starrett – a rancher at odds with homesteaders when outlaws hold up the small town.
