There are hunters, and then there is Jim Shockey. The Canadian-born outdoorsman has spent decades pursuing big game across more than 45 countries and six continents — taking over 350 species, stacking up 88 SCI world records, and achieving what no one else has.
He is the only hunter in history to complete both the North American Super Slam and Ultimate Slam using only a muzzleloader. An Honorary Lieutenant Colonel in the Canadian Armed Forces, a decorated conservationist, and the host of two internationally syndicated Outdoor Channel programs — Jim Shockey doesn't just carry the tradition of hunting forward. He carries it further than anyone else has.
Mario Kalpou lives by a simple rule: if you harvest it, you honor it. The Australian-born adventurer and host of Man Eats Wild on the Outdoor Channel has built his entire identity around that philosophy — pursuing game in some of the world's most extreme environments, then cooking it with the precision of the trained chef he is.
With over 25 years of global hunting experience spanning Australia, New Zealand, Africa, and North America, Mario is as comfortable tracking wild boar with a traditional bow as he is serving freshly harvested game over an open fire. His hunts are purposeful. His approach is ethical. His results are exceptional.

Nick Hoffman doesn't fit a single category — and that's exactly what makes him extraordinary. A fiddle player at four, a Kenny Chesney touring musician at seventeen, a CMA-SRO award winner, and one of the most widely-traveled hunters in outdoor television. Nick brings the same relentless intensity to everything he does.
His award-winning Outdoor Channel series Nick's Wild Ride blends world-class hunting with genuine cultural immersion across five continents — taking 34 species in a single season, winning Best Conservation at the 2018 Outdoor Sportsman Awards, and earning a reputation as the most authentic voice in hunting media today.
Alaska doesn't forgive mistakes. The terrain is brutal, the game is dangerous, and the margin for error is zero. That's exactly why Caleb Stillians chose it as home base. A professional Alaskan big game guide and founder of Rise Up, Caleb pursues brown bear, grizzly, wolf, and mountain goat in country that tests your gear, your fitness, and your nerve in equal measure.
Through his Rise Up platform, Caleb documents his backcountry pursuits and builds a community of hunters who believe that how you prepare, how you show up, and how you refuse to settle is what defines you — in the field and everywhere else. One shot. Don't miss it.

Jason Phelps is the founder of Phelps Game Calls and one of the most respected elk hunters in the country. Born and raised in the West, Jason built his reputation in the backcountry — chasing bulls deep into the mountains and developing the calls and gear that serious elk hunters depend on.
What started as a passion for elk hunting turned into a brand that has defined western big game hunting for a generation. When Jason heads into the field, precision matters — in his calls, in his approach, and in the rifle on his back.
Dirk Durham is one of the most recognized voices in western elk hunting — literally. Known as The Bugler, Dirk has spent decades mastering the art of elk calling, building a reputation as one of the most skilled and deadly callers in the country.
As a key member of the Phelps Game Calls team, Dirk brings the same obsessive attention to detail to his rifle as he does to his calling. In the backcountry, when the moment of truth arrives, there's no room for error — and that's exactly why he carries a Christensen Arms.
