OutdoorHub 06.26.14
The 2014 edition of the long-running Ducks Unlimited Television (DUTV) series, beginning exclusively on the Pursuit Channel on Monday, June 30, will feature hunts from every major flyway in North America. To include in-show vignettes, DUTV 2014 will feature film from California, Utah, Kansas, Louisiana, Arkansas, Texas, Missouri, Iowa, Mississippi, Alabama, North Dakota, Maryland and Saskatchewan, Canada.
DUTV’s primary airing is Saturday nights at 8:30 p.m., a centerpiece of Pursuit Channel’s Whistling Wings waterfowl block. From June 30 through December 2014 (Q3-4), DUTV will air four times weekly, including encores Mondays at 1:00 a.m., Wednesdays at 6:30 p.m. and Thursdays at 7:30 p.m. EST.
The series is hosted by Ainsley Beeman, Wade Bourne, Field Hudnall and Zack Pederson with additional expert contributions from Phil Bourjaily (Duck Gun), Mike Stewart (Duck Dog), Scott Leysath (Sporting Chef) and Dale Hall (DU Insights). Current episodes of DUTV, and additional Internet-only vignettes from the season, will also appear at www.ducks.org.
DUTV on the Pursuit Channel is presented by Remington Arms and Ammunition in association with Ram Trucks, Mossy Oak Brand Camouflage, Biologic, Nativ Nurseries, Mossy Oak Properties, Honey Brake Lodge, Mojo Outdoors, Vail Products and Ducks Unlimited. Browning Dirty Bird Apparel supplies clothing for DUTV.
“Having Duck Unlimited select us last year to produce its television component was a tremendous honor,” said Dennis Presley, vice president of MOOSE Media of West Point, MS. “The result is remarkable, and I know viewers will agree that the hosts, the guests and the DUTV production team have created a really superior new package.”
“DUTV is very fortunate to have the word-class scientific resources and the inscrutable volunteer spirit of Ducks Unlimited as the wind at our back,” said Greg Tinsley, director of production services for MOOSE, adding: “Our colleagues inside DU, to include Tom Fulgham, James Powell and Eric Keszler, are communication specialists and keen waterfowl hunters, which ensures the show’s authenticity and timeliness. When you combine a best-in-class on-air ensemble with magnificent locales and the stirring sights of waterfowl – and you get videographers Brett Jackson, Austin Brown and Richie Davenport to shoot it – you can’t help but create exceptional outdoors television, the level of Saturday night primetime excellence that’s required to make TV trays at duck camps the hot commodity.”
