‘The Obsession of Carter Andrews’ on Outdoor Channel

OSG Logo New

DENVER (April 30, 2021) –  Embark on new angling adventures with expert angler Carter Andrews on The Obsession of Carter Andrews airing Saturdays at 10 a.m. ET on Outdoor Channel.

Carter Andrews is not into fishing for recreation, money, fame or records. He is into fishing because he has no choice. He is a victim of an all-consuming obsession – one that has him on the water with friends and family 300 days a year from Costa Rica to the Snake River; Florida to Bolivia. His obsession and relentless pursuit of the greatest game fish in salt and freshwater gives his fans an informative and action-packed adventure every episode.

Carter has a fly-fishing resume that reads like a Hall of Famer’s: three wins of the Jackson Hole One Fly, countless video and print references, a keystone spot on the U.S. Fly Fishing Team… but it was a trip to the Bahamas that introduced ‘Big Boy’ to the great big world of destination saltwater angling. For the next decade he would help build fishing lodges, train guides, and lead exploratory fishing expeditions, not only in the Bahamas but across the globe. Carter became the cover shot of nearly every saltwater and fishing magazine in print, and grew to be a favored guest on fishing shows and videos.

By splitting the year between Panama and his ranch in Jackson, Wyoming, Carter manages nearly 300 days of fishing annually. Where other celebrity anglers zero in on one discipline, Carter strives to make a mark in all. He continually innovates and progresses techniques and approaches that the others do not. This has earned him the reputation of being the most ‘complete’ angler on the water today.

Outdoor Channel’s ‘Country Outdoors LIVE’ Returns May 3 with Country Rocker Tim Montana

OSG Logo New

Travis Denning, Drake White and LOCASH Are on Deck to Join Outdoor Channel’s Third Installment of Live Performance Series “Country Outdoors LIVE”

DENVER (April 29, 2021) The live performance series Country Outdoors LIVE returns to Outdoor Channel on Monday, May 3 (8 p.m. ET) featuring country rocker Tim Montana. Now signed to Music Knox Records/BBR Music Group, Tim released his new album Long Shots on April 9.

The 12-song collection blends country with rock electric guitar and influences from the West and embraces hard and fast living, the American experience and the blue-collar way. The album is an ode to the underdog and screams “hard work pays off.” Now, viewers will get to see and hear Tim in an exclusive, intimate performance. What started as a way for established and rising country music artists to connect with audiences during the Covid-19 pandemic, Country Outdoors LIVE turned into a popular platform and new programming for Outdoor Channel.

Hosts Nick Hoffman, host of Outdoor Channel’s Nick’s Wild Ride, and Mary O’Neill Phillips, host of the Outdoor Sportsman Group (OSG) podcast Country Outdoors, will introduce the live acts, as well as help viewers learn details behind-the-music during each 30-minute show. OSG also will offer Facebook Live interviews following each episode.

Chiefly considered a country rocker, Tim Montana is a true Renaissance man, moonlighting as a TV personality, marksman, father, husband, foodie, hot sauce connoisseur, hell-raiser and businessman. His sound, befitting of the off-the-grid, thrill-seeker who grew up without electricity (in where else but Montana), draws influence from the rural lifestyle with a hint of adrenaline. His music has been selected as the theme song for World Series Championship runs, PBR, NHL games, NASCAR telecasts and action movies. His music also has earned him spots opening for Kid Rock and performing alongside the Foo Fighter’s Dave Grohl.

In addition to starring in his own show, “Tim Montana's Wild Side” on Velocity Outdoor Channel and performing in several acts including the Whisker Brothers alongside ZZ Top’s legendary Billy Gibbons, Tim also has found a great deal of success as a businessman. The Montana native has longstanding partnerships with Ravin, CenterPoint, Crosman, Benjamin, Polaris, Black Rifle Coffee, Fender, Gerber, Indian Motorcycles, K&N, Kicker Performance Audio, Orange Amplifiers, Snap On, Traeger Grills and more. For more information visit https://timmontana.com/.

Future episodes of the third installment of Country Outdoors LIVE include Travis Denning on May 10; soulful Southern rocker Drake White on May 17 and award-winning duo known for fusing modern country and classic heartland rock, LOCASH May 24.

Take Two: Outdoor Sportsman Group’s ‘Backyard Ready’ Redux

OSG Logo NewBackyard Ready

Troy-Bilt, Stanley, a brand of PMI and B&W Trailer Hitches sign on as 2021 Sponsors

DENVER (April 27, 2021) – In Spring 2020, Outdoor Sportsman Group (OSG) was preparing to celebrate the outdoors when the pandemic put the country in a stranglehold for enjoying some group activities. But not backyard activities. Social distancing meant family fun, picnics, swimming and grilling – although experienced with more caution – forced outdoor enthusiasts to become more Backyard Ready than maybe previously expected.

As lives slowly return to a new normal across the United States in the Spring of 2021, OSG again is gearing up for a Backyard Ready redux for outdoor lifestyle enthusiasts. With “light at the end of the pandemic tunnel” coming into focus, backyard entertaining will become even more prevalent in the days, weeks and months to come.

Outdoor lifestyle enthusiasts live to be outside, uncluttered and unencumbered by four walls. That’s why Outdoor Sportsman Group is re-introducing Backyard Ready, an initiative that has outdoorsmen and women thinking about warmer weather.

Backyard Ready focuses on the place at home that families, friends and neighbors can’t get enough of. From grilling, deck improvement, lawns and gardens to swimming pools, the backyard is their private respite. OSG, while continuing to promote caution, is hoping outdoor lifestyle enthusiasts will once again be able to enjoy outdoor activities in their own backyards.

“With spring in full bloom and better days ahead, our Backyard Ready event returns,” Outdoor Sportsman Group Executive Vice President Advertising Sales, Jason Brist said. “From #DeerWeek in the fall to #BackyardReady now in the spring, we continue to look for ways to engage with our outdoor consumers and partners. There’s no better way to anticipate and enjoy the spring and summer months than to prepare the backyard for fun with family and friends!”

Troy-Bilt, Stanley, a brand of PMI and B&W Trailer Hitches have signed on as leading sponsors of Backyard Ready.

“Troy-Bilt is on a mission to make yard work the best work,” Troy-Bilt Brand Manager Barbara Roueche said. “Ultimately, we want people to enjoy their outdoor space as well as the time they spend maintaining it. Our collaboration with Outdoor Sportsman Group supports a variety of seasonal activities that will empower consumers to accomplish their goals in the yard.”

“Since 1913, Stanley has been creating food and beverage gear for all big and small outside moments and adventures,” Global President of Stanley Brand Terence Reilly said. “Our gear keeps your morning coffee hot, your fillets evenly heated, and your drinks ice cold and ‘backyard ready.’ Stanley is much more than a gear brand; we're there for your gatherings and adventures with others so you can make the most of your outside world together.”

“It’s almost towing season, and we know everybody is itching to get out and on the road with their boats and other gear,” B&W Trailer Hitches Marketing Manager Beth Barlow said. “We also know towing is serious business, and that’s why we are educating customers on the safest ways to get down the road and ‘Backyard Ready’ with Outdoor Sportsman Group.”

Backyard Ready advertisers will be seen across all Outdoor Sportsman Group media platforms including: linear television, digital, print, social and sweepstakes. Backyard Ready will provide consumers with information about the best ways to get their grill ready for the season, recipes, trend-setting food and beverage gear, deck preparation, spring cleaning, landscaping lawns, garage, towing, storage, yards and gardens, as well as other backyard activities shared by friends and family. OSG’s Game & Fish website and magazine will serve as dedicated content homes for all Backyard Ready categories and information.

Consumers also will have a chance to win prizes valued up to $5,000 by entering the Backyard Ready sweepstakes.

Outdoor Sportsman Group’s Backyard Ready promotion began March 30 and will run through June 30. For more information about Backyard Ready, visit: www.gameandfishmag.com/backyard

DENVER (April 26, 2021) Live performance series Country Outdoors LIVE returns to Outdoor Channel on Monday, May 3 (8 p.m. ET) and brings viewers exclusive, intimate performances with some of country music’s top rising talent. What started as a way for established and rising country music artists to connect with audiences during the Covid-19 pandemic turned into a popular platform and new programming for Outdoor Channel.

Outdoor Channel, UMG Nashville and BBR Music Group have partnered on the third installment of the network’s popular series with new episodes featuring country rock singer-songwriter Tim Montana leading off on May 3; followed by an exceptional guitarist who’s “wickedly good fun,” Travis Denning hitting second on May 10; soulful singer/songwriter Drake White is in the third spot on May 17 and award-winning duo known for fusing modern country and classic heartland rock, LOCASH “bats” cleanup on May 24.

Hosts Nick Hoffman, host of Outdoor Channel’s Nick’s Wild Ride, and Mary O’Neill Phillips, host of the Outdoor Sportsman Group podcast Country Outdoors, will introduce the live acts, as well as help viewers learn details behind-the-music during each 30-minute show. OSG also will offer Facebook Live interviews following each episode.

“In the last year, Country Outdoors LIVE has proved to be a viable and interesting way for country music artists to introduce new music and reconnect with their fans during their time off the road,” Winnercomm President and General Manager Tim Cremin said. “We welcome BBR Music Group to the family and look forward to continued support and enthusiasm within the country music community.”

Universal Music Group Nashville, BBR Music Group and Outdoor Channel’s Country Outdoors LIVE television specials will feature the following artists:

May 3 (8 p.m. ET) – Tim Montana

Chiefly considered a Country rocker, Tim Montana is a true Renaissance man, moonlighting as a TV personality, marksman, father, husband, foodie, hot sauce connoisseur, hell-raiser and businessman. His sound, befitting of the off-the-grid, thrill-seeker who grew up without electricity (in where else but Montana), draws influence from the rural lifestyle with a hint of adrenaline. His music has been selected as the theme song for World Series Championship runs, PBR, NHL games, NASCAR telecasts and action movies. His music also has earned him spots opening for Kid Rock and performing alongside the Foo Fighter’s Dave Grohl.

Now signed to BBR Music Group, Tim released his new album Long Shots on April 9. The 12-song collection blends Country with rock electric guitar and influences from the West and embraces hard and fast living, the American experience and the blue-collar way. It is an ode to the underdog and screams “hard work pays off.” In addition to starring in his own show, “Tim Montana's Wild Side” on Velocity Outdoor Channel and performing in several acts including the Whisker Brothers alongside ZZ Top’s legendary Billy Gibbons, Tim also has found a great deal of success as a businessman.

May 10 (8 p.m. ET) – Travis Denning

A native of Warner Robins, Georgia, singer/songwriter and Mercury Nashville recording artist Travis Denning just released his “clever kiss-off” (Billboard) and “wickedly fun good-riddance anthem” (PEOPLE) “ABBY.” Already amassing over 17 million streams and the track reaching the No. One spot on Sirius XM’s Highway Hot 30, the track earned the most adds at country radio upon add date. Denning celebrated his first No. One and GOLD-certified single

in 2020 with the “shadowy” (Rolling Stone) “After A Few.” Accelerating his ascend from a chart-topping single, the song is taken from his debut EP BEER’S BETTER COLD that debuted in the Top 20 of Billboard's Country Albums chart. Denning first made waves with the release of his Top 40 debut single “David Ashley Parker From Powder Springs." Denning has toured as direct support for Dustin Lynch and has previously opened shows for Cole Swindell, Alan Jackson, LANCO, Riley Green and his first headlining “Heartbeat Of A Small Town Tour.” With over 398 million streams worldwide, Denning has been spotlighted for his head-turning sound and was previously selected as one of CRS New Faces, an Opry NextStage recipient and a CMA KixStart Artist, as he makes his mark within the industry. Inspired at a young age, Denning developed a love for country, pop, rock and heavy metal and started playing local bars from the age of 16, as he built a strong following from his distinctive songs and raucous guitar solos. A prolific writer with an unquestionable stage presence, Denning moved to Nashville and secured outside cuts by Jason Aldean, Justin Moore, Michael Ray and more. Denning’s newest songwriting cut includes Michael Ray’s Top 20 single “Her World Or Mine.”

May 17 (8 p.m. ET) – Drake White

Seeing Drake White live is far from an ordinary concert experience. Equal parts warrior leader, holy-fire reverend, and gypsy Appalachian mountain man, he fronts his band with a mix of Muscle Shoals groove and honky-tonk grease. The goal? To continue building an inspired community with his voice, country-soul spirit, and relentless optimism, fusing everything he does — from the shows he plays with The Big Fire (his blue-collar band of road warriors), to the events he hosts at Whitewood Hollow, the rustic event space he hand-designed with his wife, Alex, in rural Tennessee — with the big-tent spirit of a revival. From his childhood days singing with the First Baptist Church youth choir in Alabama to his emergence as one of country music's most acclaimed innovators, with four Top 40 hits, multiple nationwide tours, and a dedicated cult following all under his belt, Drake has happily blurred the boundaries between music and every other moment of his life.

May 24 (8 p.m. ET) – LOCASH

Creating a sound that fuses modern Country and classic heartland rock with an edgy vocal blend, Wheelhouse Records’ LOCASH is the Country music duo made up of singer-songwriters Chris Lucas and Preston Brust – natives of Baltimore, Maryland, and Kokomo, Indiana, respectively. With two albums and eight charting singles to their credit, LOCASH broke out in 2015 with their gracious GOLD-certified hit, “I Love This Life," followed by the flirtatious GOLD-certified No. 1 smash, “I Know Somebody” – their first trip to the top of the Country radio airplay charts – and 2017’s fun-loving romantic anthem “Ring on Every Finger.” All three singles were part of their album, THE FIGHTERS, which was released in the summer of 2016 to Top 15 success. In 2017, they earned their first round of award show recognition, nominated at the ACM Awards for New Vocal Duo or Group of the Year, the CMT Music Awards for Duo Video of the Year (“I Know Somebody”) and the CMA Awards for Vocal Duo of the Year. The 2019 ACM Duo of the Year nominee released their latest album (and first with their new label BBR Music Group/BMG), Brothers on March 29, 2019. The follow up to their No. 1 single "One Big Country Song," “Beers to Catch Up On” is out on Country radio now.

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.

Each 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 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 CAM’s broadcast cameras.

Each archer shoots an arrow at one of the 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 having to perform in front of hundreds of spectators on the field with broadcast cameras following their every move.

The following is a list of each tournament with air date. Viewers will see the finals broadcast live on Sportsman Channel at 5 p.m. ET on August 28.

April 24 – Easton Southwest Shoot Out – Paris, Texas
