Two South Carolina girls, Danielle Writhen of Simpsonville and Ashley Sewell of Travelers Rest, will co-host an outdoor TV show called, “Southern Girls Got Game.”
The show will debut on Fox Sports South on Jan. 6, 2013 at 10:30 a.m., and will air every Sunday – plus one other weekday and one other weeknight. The first season, which includes 26 episodes, will finish up in June.
Writhen is an age-group archery and turkey-calling champion. She took the Upstate and state titles in her age group at the S.C. State Archery Tournament near Central, finished second in the Open Youth Division and, second in the Open Hunting Division at the National Federation calling contest in Augusta, Ga., and third in the Youth Division at the National Wild Turkey Federation calling contest in Augusta, Ga.
Sewell, who has a 1 ½-year-old daughter, is a personal trainer and competitive archer who has killed alligators, hogs, deer and turkeys with a bow. She has been studying biology at Greenville Tech, planning to eventually become a veterinarian.
Writhen and Sewell have filmed shows in Alabama, Alaska, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Kentucky, Oklahoma, Texas and South Carolina, hunting for gators, bear, deer, duck, hogs and turkeys, fishing for crappie and noodling for catfish.
On one of the first shows will feature a trip to Alaska for black bear. Writhen and Sewell camped and hunted on Price of Wales Island for nine days, with Writhen taking a 600-pound male and Sewell a 175-pound sow.
