“KONUS USA is proud to announce its 2010 sponsorships of two of the top hunting programs available on cable, satellite and local TV today: Shoot Straight with Chad Shearer and O’Neill Outside,” said Mark Shore, Vice President of Sales & Marketing at KONUS USA. “Not only are O'Neill and Chad true champions of the outdoor experience, but they're disciplined proponents in the preservation of our natural resources too, so we're happy to provide our support to their shows. There is no doubt that Chad and O'Neill will find themselves in the harshest environments while in the field. We couldn't imagine a better testament to the quality of Konus products than showing this to the world.”
