April 17, 2012 – SAN ANTONIO, TX – The most-watched field sports TV series in the outdoor industry, “The Bucks of Tecomate” (BoT), is moving to Outdoor Channel, America’s Leader In Outdoor TV, in 2013. Joining “Tecomate Whitetail Nation” (TWN), which already airs on Outdoor Channel during the first two quarters of the year, Q3 and Q4 BoT will give Tecomate a powerful year-round presence in the outdoor TV market. Produced by award-winning Orion Entertainment, both TWN and BoT will be hosted by renowned author/whitetail hunter/manager David Morris, food plot pioneer Dr. Gary Schwarz, and Team Tecomate.
“If there’s one company in the whitetail space that has momentum it’s Tecomate,” says Orion President Chris Dorsey. “Morris, Schwarz, and Team Tecomate are a tremendous trio that attract dominant ratings because they know whitetails and they know how to translate their passion for big deer on TV. Better than anyone, Tecomate has harnessed the nationwide movement for growing and hunting bigger deer and they’re helping empower millions of outdoorsmen and women to transform their own hunting experiences.”
“We are very excited to become a part of the Outdoor Channel family,” says co-host David Morris. “The network is all outdoors, all the time. Because of that, it has a loyal following of serious hunters, especially whitetail hunters, Tecomate’s core market. Outdoor Channel is the perfect fit for ‘Tecomate Whitetail Nation’ and ‘The Bucks of Tecomate.’”

We are delighted that the best outdoor network on television has joined forces with The Big Buck Professionals.”
