Outdoor Channel and Sportsman Channel Add Country Music Star Tyler Farr as #DeerWeek Host

OSG Logo New
deer-week-pr

Joins Jeff Danker in Fourth Year to Provide Viewers with Fun, Excitement and Deer

DENVER (June 23, 2020) Outdoor Channel and Sportsman Channel launch year four of Outdoor Sportsman Group Networks’ programming initiative to welcome the Fall hunting season – #DeerWeek presented by Academy Sports + Outdoors – with the announcement that country music star Tyler Farr (Only Truck in Town) will join Sportsman Channel’s Jeff Danker (BuckVentures) as host for the week of September 14-20 (7 p.m.-Midnight).

“Adding Tyler Farr, one of country music’s most exciting rising stars, to our #DeerWeek programming is a welcome addition,” Outdoor Sportsman Group President and CEO, Jim Liberatore said. “Tyler will join Jeff Danker as Outdoor Channel and Sportsman Channel hosts while serving up fun, excitement, camaraderie and adventure as they steer viewers towards deer hunting season.”

#DeerWeek, launched in 2017, is a unique, week-long, cross-platform event featuring primetime programming showcasing deer-specific content on Outdoor Channel and Sportsman Channel. This year marks the fourth consecutive year of this specialized, “deer-themed” programming block.

#DeerWeek content also will be present in relevant print, digital and social media platforms owned, operated and distributed by Outdoor Sportsman Group Networks and Outdoor Sportsman Group Publishing arms. More than 30 hours of Outdoor Channel and Sportsman Channel primetime programming will be dedicated to the week-long celebration of deer hunting. Content also will be made available to Outdoor Sportsman Group Publishing’s 16 magazines and 20 online websites (Outdoor Channel Plus) and digital outlets including streaming video-on-demand service MyOutdoorTV (MOTV), as well as Outdoor Sportsman Group’s vast array of social media platforms.

For all programming, scheduling and #DeerWeek information visit: www.outdoorchannel.com

About Jeff Danker: Jeff is co-owner and manager of BVO Productions. He started BuckVentures in 2003 with the motto “Shoot by Sight, Walk by Faith” based off of 2 Corinthians 5:7 and has been hosting hunting shows ever since. Jeff spent time as a professional team roper before starting his career in television. In addition to hunting for a living, Jeff speaks about his faith in church’s all across the country.

About Tyler Farr: Authentic and unapologetic, Tyler Farr records songs he would listen to in his truck – windows down, sound up. It just so happens country music fans want to hear the same songs. Without pandering or compromise, Farr’s powerhouse vocals, real-guy relatability, and willingness to mine emotional themes and personal imperfection resonates with people searching to find themselves in the music that underscores their daily routines and future dreams. With three No. 1 songs (“Redneck Crazy,” “Whiskey in My Water,” and “A Guy Walks Into a Bar”) and a growing string of hits, they found it in Farr. And like a weathered truck with rusty tail pipes, it can get a little loud and gritty. His current single “Only Truck In Town” – dubbed a “country boy’s love song” by Taste of Country – taps familiar topics without feeling tired or contrived. Online media outlet Sounds Like Nashville reports “Hitmaker Tyler Farr returns to country radio with a truck song of a different stripe…dropping into low gear with the slow-and-steady romance of ‘Only Truck In Town.’” Taste of Country put it, “The joy of the song is that it borrows a few bro-ish themes, but bends them enough to create something quite sincere and generous.”

Outdoor Sportsman Group’s MOTV Original Series ’14 Outdoorsmen’ Family To Receive Visit From the Stork in October

OSG Logo New

Show Featuring 14 Michigan Brothers Receives News: Baby No. 15 Set to Arrive in October

DENVER (June 23, 2020) – The Schwandt Family (Lakeview, MI) comprised of 14 brothers, ages 28-2 years old, and the subject of Outdoor Sportsman Group’s new outdoor lifestyle streaming show on MyOutdoorTV (MOTV)14 Outdoorsmen – announce they will welcome a new addition to their family in October 2020.

Jay (45) and Kateri Schwandt (45) never knew the gender of their 14 previous pregnancies until delivery – Tyler (28), Zach (24), Drew (23), Brandon (21), Tommy (18), Vinny (17), Calvin (15), Gabe (13), Wesley (11), Charlie (10), Luke (8), Tucker (6), Francisco (5) and Finley (2) – and Baby No. 15 will be no different.

“We are overjoyed and beyond excited to be adding to our family,” family patriarch Jay Schwandt effused. “When Kateri and I were married right out of high school we always talked about having a family. Little did we ever think we would be blessed with 15 children.”

The Schwandts started dating as freshmen in high school – Jay at Gaylord High School and Kateri at Gaylord St. Mary’s and were married immediately following high school before attending Ferris State University.

“Because there is enough testosterone in our house to fill a stadium, it might be nice to add a little girl, but we will love and cherish our new baby regardless of the gender,” Kateri Schwandt admits. “I do know one thing though, if we do have a little girl, she will be the most spoiled and protected child her entire life, especially during her teenage years.”

The two married in 1993 and attended Ferris State, living in the “married” dorm at the University. Along the way throughout their college careers, the Schwandts not only graduated with bachelor’s degrees but also left school with three young boys before continuing their education – Kateri received her Master’s degree in social work from Grand Valley State University and Jay earned a law degree from Thomas Cooley Law School – and adding to their family. The Schwandts also have one grandchild, Luciana (2), the daughter of Drew and his partner, Anelene.

An avid outdoorsman, Jay, a lawyer and land surveyor by trade, has introduced his outdoor lifestyle passions to his sons and Outdoor Sportsman Group was intrigued to find out more about the Schwandts.

MOTV has captured the story of this fascinating family in their streaming video show 14 Outdoorsmen. Besides the day-to-day lives of the 14 boys and their parents, the show will feature the seasonal planning, preparation and execution of hunting and fishing together while incorporating the logistics of a familial platoon.

MOTV’s original series 14 Outdoorsmen will debut in October 2020 on MyOutdoorTV.com. For more information, visit www.OutdoorChannelPlus.com.

DENVER (June 22, 2020) – Fourteen brothers, ages 28-2 years old, are the subjects of Outdoor Sportsman Group’s new outdoor lifestyle streaming show on MyOutdoorTV (MOTV)14 Outdoorsmen – set to debut in October 2020.

When Jay (45) and Kateri Schwandt (45) started dating as freshmen in high school – Jay at Gaylord High School and Kateri at Gaylord St. Mary’s – little did they ever expect 28 years later they would become parents of 14 boys and be the featured subjects of a streaming video show in a media family – Outdoor Sportsman Group – that includes four television networks (Outdoor Channel, Sportsman Channel, Sportsman Channel Canada and World Fishing Network), 16 top-tier outdoor lifestyle publications, 20 online websites, as well as a streaming video service (MOTV) seen in 162 countries around the world.

Their poor mother, right?

“There’s enough testosterone in our house to fill a stadium,” Kateri Schwandt admits. “But, we always wanted to have a family. Jay thought five or six was a big family!”

Kateri knew better. As the 13th child of 14 in her family of seven boys and seven girls, a big family is how she was raised. Jay has a younger sister. “We have so much fun with the boys and have always made family and being together the focal point of everything we do,” Jay explained.

The two married straight out of high school in 1993 and attended Ferris State, living in the “married” dorm at the University. Along the way throughout their college careers, the Schwandts not only graduated with bachelor’s degrees but also left school with three young boys before continuing their education – Kateri received her Master’s degree in social work from Grand Valley State University and Jay earned a law degree from Thomas Cooley Law School – and adding to their family. The Schwandts have experienced 14 separate pregnancies and healthy deliveries.

An avid outdoorsman, Jay, a lawyer and land surveyor by trade, has introduced his outdoor lifestyle passions to his sons and Outdoor Sportsman Group was intrigued to find out more about the Schwandts.

“We heard a story about a family in Michigan that had 14 children, all sons, that were really into the outdoor lifestyle – hardcore – and we decided we needed to meet them and find out for ourselves,” Outdoor Sportsman Group President and CEO, Jim Liberatore said. “After hearing their story, we thought other people might be interested to see and hear about this unique family.”

Jay and Kateri Schwandt and their 14 boys (Tyler – 28, Zach – 24, Drew – 23, Brandon – 21, Tommy – 18, Vinny – 17, Calvin – 15, Gabe – 13, Wesley – 11, Charlie – 10, Luke – 8, Tucker – 6, Francisco – 5 and Finley – 2) love to spend time outdoors hunting, fishing and experiencing nature at their Lakeview, Michigan, farm. Outdoor Sportsman Group’s MOTV has captured the story of this fascinating family in their streaming video show 14 Outdoorsmen. Besides the day-to-day lives of the 14 boys and their parents, the show will feature the seasonal planning, preparation and execution of hunting and fishing together while incorporating the logistics of a familial platoon.

MOTV’s original series 14 Outdoorsmen will debut in October 2020 on MyOutdoorTV.com. For more information, visit www.OutdoorChannelPlus.com.
