It looks like the team at Browning have waited long enough to jump on the band wagon of TV hunting programs. However, usually when a company like Browning enters the game, it is because they have waited for the right time and situation to do it right. Here is more information about Browning’s new TV program.

New Browning TV Program Premiers on The Outdoor Channel June 29.

Browning’s, The Best There Is TV will debut in prime time on Thursday, June 29, 2006 with an 8 p.m. EST time slot on The Outdoor Channel. Created in association with Mossy Oak Productions, the new series will tell the Browning story of continuing innovation while exploring the great traditions of the outdoor pursuits we all enjoy.

Grounded in the rich history of Browning and always looking toward the future, the new television series will reflect on Browning’s lasting values and grand traditions, and will help pass along the hunting conservationists’ respect for nature and wildlife. At the same time, the program will make the emotion and excitement of the outdoor tradition come alive with the best hunting footage seen anywhere and will showcase the tradition of innovation Browning embodies through exclusive product features uniquely woven into the fabric of each memorable episode. From rifles to shotguns, from optics to outerwear and all things in between, no matter what your outdoor interest may be, Browning brings you the finest products available.

Episode 1, entitled “Southern Hospitality,” marks the program’s debut with an all-out Southern-style deer hunting adventure. Taped in Jachin, Alabama, at the Bent Creek Lodge during the peak of the whitetail rut, it follows the hunting adventure of two Browning employees, Larry Nelson and Bob Wicks. Both are veteran big game hunters who are new to the Southern whitetail addiction. While there they also take part in some fast flying quail shooting action and see what the hunting camp tradition in the Deep South is all about. The popular lineup of Browning A-Bolt centerfire rifles will be featured in this episode.

Subsequent episodes of Browning’s, The Best There Is TV already taped include caribou and black bear hunts in Northern Canada, stalking pronghorn and mule deer across the high plains of the West as well as the pursuit of whitetail, wild turkey, ducks and geese in some of the hottest hunting spots in North America.

“This program tells the ongoing story of John M. Browning, the world’s greatest firearm designer,” observed Travis Hall, Marketing Vice President for Browning. “The enduring popularity of his visionary designs, coupled with the innovations of the company that still bears his name serve as the starting point for each episode of this incredible program. This series features our own Browning employees out in the game fields, tree stands and duck blinds as they experience the triumphs and disappointments familiar to every true hunter and outdoorsman. It’s everything quality outdoor television can and should be.”

Browning’s, The Best There Is TV joins a growing lineup of the very best outdoor entertainment on the air. Available nationally and internationally, The Outdoor Channel has become the place to be for must-see outdoor TV.
