Pursuit Channel Announces Web Redesign, Launches New Monthly E-Zine
OutdoorHub 04.08.13
The Pursuit Channel, America’s largest, audited outdoors television network, is now offering updated and new desktop and wireless digital experiences free to the consumer marketplace.
Clean, contemporary design now sets the tone at www.pursuitchannel.com. Other online improvements include simplified, intuitive navigation for quicker searches of broadcast schedules, news and information on network personalities. The Pursuit Channel’s improved landing page is also the portal to the network’s exclusive, live online broadcast feed and the company’s new, monthly, E-Zine publication.
“The response to the online upgrades to the Pursuit Channel website has been very positive,” said network CEO Rusty Faulk. “And though it’s very early in the release of our initial consumer-aimed digital magazine, the feedback on the first edition only underlines our excitement and commitment.”
The Pursuit Channel E-Zine premier issue, showcasing nine feature stories and 13 columns, is 113 pages deep with more than 60 photographs. Network personalities like Hank Parker, Eddie Salter and Spook Spann are bylined, along with pieces by professional writers Bob Foulkrod, Don Kirk and Craig Haney. Excellent content runs the gamut from Foulkrod’s campaign for a Gould’s gobbler in Mexico, completing his World Slam of wild turkeys, to Kirk’s golden-age fishing confessional titled “The Trout Barn.” The work of John “Bubba” Phillips, perhaps the nation’s most prolific outdoor writer of all time, is behind many of the as-told-to articles from network personalities.
With Faulk as Editor, the Pursuit Channel E-Zine is published in partnership with The Electro Mundo Gruppe of Oneonta, Alabama. “There’s work to do, certainly, but this first issue of the Pursuit Channel digital magazine does have some great content for hunters and fishers of all levels and it’s free to all consumers,” said Faulk. “These digital publications were made to mix exciting and informative video segments right in there with text and still images and that’s where we’re going. It’s also a great new way to engage mobile audiences and drive any number of initiatives, from retail-level sweepstakes to traditional television viewership.”
