3-Day Whitetail Extravaganza Anchored by 16-Hour Black Friday Marathon
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 wall-to-wall deer hunting in primetime on both November 21and 22 and culminating with an incredible 16 hours of deer hunts on November 23, “Racksgiving” presented by Weaver Optics, 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 a marathon dedicated to their favorite animal – all in crystal clear HD,” said Graig Hale, VP of Business Development and Programming. “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.”
“We know Thanksgiving is a time for friends, family, food—and hunting,” said Weaver Marketing Director Jason Nash. “Deer seasons are open all over the country—and even if you can’t get out in the woods this year—your mind has probably wandered to that favorite stand or ‘back forty’. And what a better way to help keep you in the mood than great deer hunting shows from Sportsman’s Channel? We couldn’t be happier to be involved with Racksgiving. We wish everyone the best—especially those serving this great country domestically and abroad.”
“Racksgiving” kicks off on November 21, during Big Game Wednesday. Six series will showcase deer episodes starting at 8 pm ET/PT. The special programming continues on Thanksgiving night, as deer trumps turkey over four episodes of Thursday Trailblazers also starting at 8 pm ET.
And all that is but a precursor to deer marathon on November 23, from 6 am until 11 pm ET.
