Conrad Evarts

An insider’s look at the trials, tribulations and sordid truths behind the glamorous TV hunting lifestyle of Petersen’s Hunting Adventures.

The original producer of Petersen’s Hunting Adventure Television, Conrad Evarts is the senior hunting cameraman for Intermedia Outdoors. You can spot him at the check-in line at any major flight hub ranting about airport etiquette and waving platinum frequent flyer cards like gang signs.

He’s taped in over 20 countries from Australia to Turkey, where it is rumored he is responsible for several honor killings, and spends fully half the year in hunting camps. Evarts is known for being crazy enough to sign on for the goat and sheep hunts, lugging his heavy camera up cliffs.

The highlight of his career was taping Craig Boddington taking his desert bighorn. If you see him on a plane, avoid direct eye contact as you pass through first class.
