OSG Logo New

Pro/Am is Part of McKenzie Archery Shooters Association (ASA) 3D Live Tournament Series

DENVER (July 28, 2021) Sportsman Channel, a network of Outdoor Sportsman Group – the world’s largest aggregator, creator and distributor of outdoor lifestyle content – continues as the official multimedia distributor of the McKenzie Archery Shooters Association (ASA) 3D Live Tournament. The next event to broadcast via linear, digital and social channels (Sportsman Channel, MOTV and Sportsman Channel Facebook page) is the Elite Archery Pro/AM on Saturday, July 31 at 5 p.m. ET.

The network will continue to distribute monthly tournaments throughout the summer, with the final tournament on August 28.

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. The concept has evolved to the point where Sportsman Channel agreed to televise tournaments in a six-month schedule in 2021. Each McKenzie ASA 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 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.

Viewers will see the finals broadcast live on Sportsman Channel at 5 p.m. ET on August 28 in Russell County, Ala.

Sponsors of the McKenzie ASA 3D Live Tournament include: Elite Archery, Hoyt, Easton Southwest, TRU Ball & Black Eagle and Mathews. For more information on Sportsman Channel and the Archery Shooters Association, visit: www.asaarchery.com.

About Archery Shooters Association: In addition to the national Tour, the ASA supports more than 330 clubs that provide an excellent opportunity for everyone to shoot. With a focus on the growth of the sport of 3-D archery by supporting local clubs and making a commitment to youth education and training, the ASA has established itself as a leading force in the movement to bring the sport to mainstream America. The ASA organization includes experienced archers and coaches that work year-round conducting well- organized and challenging local, state, and national tournaments that are enjoyed by professional and amateur shooters alike.

Four Lifelong Friends Share the Hunting Lifestyle on ‘Red Rising’ on Sportsman Channel

OSG Logo New

DENVER (July 20, 2021) – Four lifelong friends that share an unbreakable bond bound by their outdoor and hunting lifestyle are featured in the series, Red Rising, airing Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET on Sportsman Channel. Follow Jason Bowers, Eric Hale, Chris Ward and Matt Bullins as they travel across grassroots America in search of life’s experiences, while hunting whitetail and documenting their journey.

Jason Bowers was born and raised in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Southwest Virginia. At an early age, he discovered a passion for hunting and the outdoor way of life and has been filming outdoor television for more than 10 years. Jason’s love of adventure in the outdoors fuels his passion to share the journey of the real stories of hunting, whether good or bad. Among being an avid outdoorsman, Jason is also a realtor, insurance agent, auctioneer and volunteer firefighter.

Eric Hale literally lived outdoors. His family spent a lot of time chasing whitetails and wild turkeys, as well as catching big rainbow trout in mountain streams and smallmouth bass. Eric and his friend Chris Ward began filming professionally in the outdoor industry in 2003. Eric continues to work as a State Parole Officer and has been a volunteer firefighter for the City of Galax, the town he lives, for 17 years.

Some of Chris Ward’s greatest memories as a child were hunting with his dad and grandad in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia. He has always loved everything about the outdoors and hunting quickly became one of his greatest passions. Professionally, Chris began filming with Eric Hale and Drury Outdoors in 2003. After six years they branched out and started Legends of the Fall on the Outdoor Channel, where they remained for five years. Like the seasons, Chris and Eric felt it was time for a change and wanted to try something new, something different, which was to tell stories of their hunts and let the viewer live the hunt through them – both good and bad. Chris continues to be a Probation and Parole Officer for the state of Virginia as well as owner/auctioneer of the Dawn Auction Company.

Matt Bullins grew up in the Blue Ridge Mountains, in northwest North Carolina, where hunting wasn't just a hobby, but more of a way of life. His father forged his passion and love for the outdoors and whitetails at an early age, and it fueled his desire to take it a step further. Matt began filming professionally as a freelance cameraman for several Drury Outdoors team members in 2005, while making several appearances on the hit TV series Bow Madness on Outdoor Channel and several Drury Outdoors DVD's. He continued this role until 2010 when he and Jason Bowers were selected as full- time cast members for Dream Season: Workin' Man on Outdoor Channel. In 2012, the entire cast branched out and founded a new hit TV series Whitetail Fix on Sportsman Channel. For seven years, Matt served as Co-Host, Owner, President & CEO of Whitetail Fix. Matt is now the newest member of Red Rising and has never felt more welcomed or at home. Currently, Matt works as a Mortgage Banker for Atlantic Bay Mortgage Group.

Red Rising airs on Sportsman Channel on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET. Find Sportsman Channel in your area by visiting https://www.thesportsmanchannel.com
