Casting Application

An entire season of filming takes place from Saturday to the following Sunday near Winfield, Kansas on a date to be announced soon (plan for March 2027). This allows one travel day with partial filming at the beginning and one travel day with partial filming at the end of the season with 7 full filming days in between.


Schedule

Sat - Sun: Arrival and Welcome

Mon - Fri: The Games

Sat - Sun: Finals and Departure


Key Requirements:

  • Must be fully available all filming days

  • Bring your own bow and at least 12 arrows

  • Camouflaged clothing encouraged

  • Full gear list provided if selected

  • Production will inspect your gear prior to entering the game.

  • You will not be allowed to use your phone for the entire game.*


It’s a competition but there are no eliminations by voting. The entire cast starts and finishes the entire game. Selected contestants will appear in every episode. We want a mix of seasoned bowhunters and motivated beginners so if you’ve never even been in the woods, you may still be selected. Personality is more important than experience so be yourself. On-camera coaching will be provided. 


* Your family will have a production number for emergencies.
