Digital Video Series Records Epic Hunting Adventures for Plains Game in Southern Africa
DENVER (September 3, 2026) – Join in the adventure of a lifetime, hunting the iconic plains game of Southern Africa with “Ruger Presents Horns of Africa,” in partnership with Burris Optics, and in cooperation with Outdoor Sportsman Group’s legacy big-game hunting brand, Petersen’s HUNTING. Available now to watch exclusively on the Petersen’s HUNTING Website, Petersen’s HUNTING YouTube and on MyOutdoorTV (MOTV), this 8-part series hosted by Kali Parmley (Host of Wild Upland, Editor in Chief of Gun Dog and Backcountry Hunter magazines) gives viewers a first-hand look at safari life in Southern Africa and what it takes to hunt plains game, especially various antelope, but also other game species and gamebirds. Kali Parmley and her hunting partners share their experiences in the field, demonstrating, along with their Professional Hunter (PH), the modern hunting tackle and techniques that work in the breathtakingly beautiful but harsh and often unforgiving conditions of the rolling African bushveld.
With partners Ruger and Burris Optics, Host Kali Parmley and team not only enjoy the heart of the African wilderness in pursuit of some of the continent’s most sought-after game species, but they also celebrate the vital role that hunting plays in conservation in Africa. Parmley and team give back to the community by visiting a local school, do some big-picture sightseeing at the unforgettable Mapungubwe National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site famous for the ancient African Kingdom that arose there at the confluence of the Limpopo and Shashe Rivers, and they spend invaluable time getting to know and understand what it means to be a PH in Africa, and also what it means to be perhaps their greatest asset – a spoorsnyer, which means “tracker” in Afrikaans.
Follow Ruger Director of Media, Advertising, and Public Relations, Abbey Clary, as she makes her first trip to Africa, discovering the incredible people and places that make the Limpopo Province so unique and unforgettable, and setting her sights on the brindled blue wildebeest, the mesmerizingly graceful impala, and the striking but secretive nyala antelope.
Tim Cremin, Head of Programming at Outdoor Sportsman Group (OSG), expressed his enthusiasm for this second edition of Ruger Presents Horns of Africa: “We’re really excited about returning to Southern Africa with a fresh eye to document the sights and sounds of the Limpopo region and the natural spectacle that is safari, while at the same time working with our partners Ruger and Burris to show how hunting conserves wildlife and wild lands – and the communities that depend on both.”

The Hunter’s Quest (8:00 p.m. ET): Hunter McWaters grew up hunting whitetails and waterfowl on the East Coast, but once he found western hunting his life changed forever. Follow Hunter as he learns to become a better hunter – and a better human – through public-land adventures in the American West and beyond. In the first episode of the month, “Wyoming Duck ‘n Buck 1,” Hunter is joined by Taylor Deemer of Ducks Unlimited, and they head to Eastern Wyoming for waterfowl and antelope.
The Western Hunter (8:30 p.m. ET): Hosted by Nate Simmons and Chris Denham, this fan-favorite program documents the journeys of public-land hunters out West.

In this week’s show, “Barely Legal Part 1,” Nate Simmons bow hunts for high country mule deer on public land in Wyoming.
Art of Wild (9:00 p.m. ET): A film series that aims to tell stories about the wild in the most cinematic way possible, Art of Wild takes viewers to incredible, wild places that most people will never see but where the human spirit is truly fed. Only a hunter knows what it’s like to wake up with the woods, to hear a bull bugle in the gray light, or to experience the myriad moments that make up the beauty of the wild. This series isn’t about any one person but about what hunters enjoy the most – the wild. This week on “The Eye,” longtime Art of Wild friend Josh Bartlam hunts whitetail deer in Kansas with his dad.
Into High Country (9:30 p.m. ET): Host Jason Matzinger seeks to capture the best of western hunting in his home state of Montana and throughout the West.

Greg McHale’s Wild Yukon (10:30 p.m. ET): Host Greg McHale brings a passionate spirit of adventure to his big-game hunts in Canada’s wild Yukon and beyond, creating intense and inspiring journeys that push him both physically and mentally. Follow McHale and his family as they create memories in the wilderness and pass on the traditions that we all love. In this week’s show, “South Island Stories: Chasing Chamois,” McHale turns his focus to the chamois of New Zealand’s Southern Alps. Spotting the unique goat-antelope in the vast, rocky terrain and then stalking into range under shifting conditions calls for persistence, good-timing, and precise shooting.
MeatEater (11:00 p.m. & 11:30 p.m. ET): Hunter, author, cook and conservationist Steven Rinella treks into the world’s most remote, beautiful places, bringing game meat from field to table. In this week’s first episode, “Montana Heritage Hunt,” Steven Rinella sets off alone with his muzzleloader; and in the second show, “Texas Turkeys,” Rinella hunts turkeys on the historic Yturria Ranch with country music artist Luke Combs.
