Each year Muzzy Products Corporation bestows its prestigious Tall Man Award to someone who "stands tall" among his or her peers by contributing to the community and going above and beyond to promote and protect the future of archery and bow hunting. This year, Muzzy is proud to present the award at the 2012 ATA show in Columbus, Ohio to the Cianciarulo family. The award will be presented on Wednesday, Jan. 11 at 10 a.m. in the Muzzy booth.

Ralph and Vicki Cianciarulo host two of the top-rated hunting television shows, Archer's Choice® and The Choice®, which air on the Outdoor Channel. Known as "North America's Favorite Hunting Couple," Ralph and Vicki have worked from the bottom up to earn a reputation that is second to none in the hunting industry. Their company, Archer's Choice Media, is a family owned and operated business dedicated to promoting hunting and the outdoors through their hunting TV shows. Their TV shows have been nominated for the Outdoor Channel's Golden Moose Awards, and in 2005 they won a Golden Moose for Fan Favorite Hunting Show.

"The Cianciarulo family is the real deal," Michele Musacchia-Eichler, Muzzy CEO, says. "They represent the hunting industry with such class and dedication, always giving back and always with an eye on the future and protecting our hunting heritage. It's our honor to recognize them with this award."

Ralph says that hunting and archery are their lives, and they have been blessed in so many ways.

"We are honored to be recognized by Muzzy, a company who gives back to this entire industry in so many ways," Ralph says. "This means so much to our family. We can't say thank you enough to Michele and everyone from Muzzy."

Ralph also thanks his family for their support, especially his mother Arlene Cianciarulo who does her fair share to keep the family and business running. She helps out in the production studio and with Ralph and Vicki's son RJ when the couple is on the road or in the field. She's also been there for encouragement.

"As long as I can remember, my parents have encouraged me to do the best I can no matter what I did in life," Ralph says. "The best way for any of us to compliment our parents is to always remember actions reflect leadership. Thanks Mom and Dad."
