HONORING THE

Benny Spies proudly represents the everyman of the outdoors, weekend warriors and the part-time hunters, which are the valuable majority that the outdoor media world routinely ignores.
The EveryOutdoorsMan is the 9-to-5 working, blue collar, outdoorsman who was born and raised enjoying the outdoors. He’s the person who dreams of hunting on the weekends with his buddies while glaring through the office window during the work week. These same people dream of the moment, which at some point during the thousands of hours spent in the field, they just might get a shot at a Boone & Crockett whitetail. And if it actually happens, hit or miss, the adventure will live forever in a story that’ll be told a million times in a thousand different ways. This is the everyman hunters’ reality.
Hunting is about real people driving beat-up vehicles into their favorite spot an hour before sunrise, all jittery on anticipation and caffeine. Hunting is about small towns and the characters met there. It’s about ducks flying overhead and profanities flying below. It’s about inside jokes, tomfoolery, shenanigans and yelling “ROOOOOOSTEERRRRR!” It’s about enjoying life with friends and family, creating memories and stories with real people doing real things.

'Gun It with Benny Spies' premiered in 2010 on VERSUS / NBC SPORTS NETWORK and ran for three seasons.
