Pursuit Channel and Deer & Deer Hunting Renew Multi-Year Deal

Glenwood, AL – Pursuit Media, LLC and Media 360, LLC renews multi-year deal.

Pursuit Media LLC and Media 360, LLC, parent company of Deer & Deer Hunting TV and many other brands, are pleased to announce a multi-year renewal of their content distribution and co-marketing partnership.

The Deer & Deer Hunting crew have been bringing best-in-class whitetail content to Pursuit viewers for the past six years with the two-hour “Saturday Night Deer Camp” programming block. Leading the way is Deer & Deer Hunting TV that has been on air for 18 seasons, followed by Land of Whitetail, Deer-Tech TV, and DeerTopia.

“Anybody who knows the outdoor space, knows the Deer & Deer Hunting brand is one of the strongest in the industry” says Rusty Faulk, Founder and CEO of Pursuit Media.  “Having multiple shows, and a D&DH branded-block night, coming from this team of content professionals has been a blessing and we are very pleased that it will continue into the foreseeable future” he continues.

Deer & Deer Hunting’s President and Publisher, Brad Rucks, discussed what the relationship has meant to their business: “We are proud to keep our historic brand in partnership with America’s leading outdoor TV provider,” he said. “We couldn’t be more pleased with what Pursuit offers hardcore outdoor enthusiasts.  We’ve watched the network grow and continue to watch it grow in all areas of distribution, including a very impressive streaming presence. That growth, along with tremendous flexibility for our content has been invaluable to our all-encompassing media business.”

Here’s a closer look at the four Media 360 shows:

• Deer & Deer Hunting TV – This highly regarded show was started 18 years ago as the video extension of America’s First and Foremost Whitetail Source®. Led by host Daniel Schmidt, our team of contributors cover all things relative to the science of hunting and the behavior of the white-tailed deer. Every episode is produced with one goal in mind: To make the viewer a better hunter by providing comprehensive and practical information.
• Deer-Tech TV – This show embraces the innovation and technological advancements in all areas of the Outdoors industry. DeerTech is a new kind of TV show that doesn’t just hash through “what’s new,” it dives deeper and goes behind the scenes of each sponsor’s products to educate the hunting public on the full advantages to each piece of deer gear in their fall hunting arsenal.
• Land of Whitetail TV – This television series takes the viewer inside the world of whitetail. Each episode takes a look at how and why whitetails behave the way they and how to apply this insight to improve the outcome of hunts. Special emphasis is given to land management techniques and deer management practices.
• DeerTopia TV – Whether you lease, own or just have access to a small piece of private land, you can improve it to make it more deer-friendly. DeerTopia is a spin-off of the wildly popular YouTube program “Grow ’em Big with Steve Bartylla.” A veteran land manager with 25-plus years experience, Steve provides real-world advice and techniques that will shorten your learning curve to producing bigger and healthier deer while also offering proven hunting tactics.

Deer & Deer Hunting’s Vice-President and TV cohost, Dan Schmidt, said the two companies’ synergies and core beliefs are what makes the partnership special. “At the end of the day, it’s about whether or not you’re on the same page. Our brands and the Pursuit network are a perfect match. I’m quite certain this is in line with what our founders envisioned for growing the D&DH brand when they incorporated the Stump Sitters in 1973 and then kickstarted the whitetail-specific niche with the magazine four years later.”
