Sportsman Channel Giving Thanks (and Racks) on Racksgiving
OutdoorHub 11.08.11
New Berlin, WI November 9, 2011 – It’s the season that many American Sportsmen live for, and the long Thanksgiving weekend is at the very heart of it. In celebration of whitetail season, Sportsman Channel, the leader in outdoor TV for the American Sportsman, will deliver three straight days of the best whitetail hunting shows on TV. Beginning with four hours of wall-to-wall deer hunting in primetime on both November 23and 24 and culminating with an incredible 16 hours of deer hunts on November 25, “Racksgiving” presented by Rut Fuel is the perfect antidote for whitetail fanatics looking for a break from the football and shopping-heavy weekend.
“This is the season of the American Sportsman and Sportsman Channel viewers are all about whitetail this time of year. What better way to acknowledge this passion than by giving our audience 24 hours dedicated to their favorite animal – all in crystal clear HD,” said Greg Trager, VP of Programming and Production. “Season after season, we continue to deliver superior programming about the king of American big-game animals. It’s just one of the reasons why we are the ultimate destination for the American sportsman and THE place to be if you want to reach this targeted audience.”
“Racksgiving” kicks off on November 23, during Big Game Wednesdays presented by Wildgame Innovations. Eight series will showcase brand-new deer episodes starting at 7 pm ET. The special programming continues on Thanksgiving night, as deer trumps turkey over eight episodes of Thursday Traditions presented by The Sportsman’s Guide also starting at 7 pm ET.
And all that is but a precursor to deer marathon on November 25, from 6 am ET until 4 pm, and again from 6 pm to midnight.
