Sure Gary, put together another excellent seminar now that I don't live in Ct. anymore. :banghead:
Of course, I did leave the state almost 30 years ago. :biglaugh:

Mike is a great speaker if you can make this I would. I think he knows more about deer than deer do ! I was fortunate enough to spend some time with Mike and was really in awe of his knowledge .
-
Count Cade and I in Gary!

If you have never heard Mr. Mitton speak you need to attend this. Great speaker and a great guy to chat with!!

Got lots of room folks its going to be a great show.
Scott wish you could have made this one I love meeting some of my best customers
-
Just got done with his book wish was close that would be awesome

One with the wilderness
Is one of my favorite books just a must read if you ask me.
It's a prerequisite to being a bowhunter in my opinion, along with Primal Dreams another Mitten project that is just amazing.

This would be a great Christmas gift for any bow hunting!!
MIKE MITTENS BIO
(http://i1072.photobucket.com/albums/w372/ghall80/IMG5005MAR_1.jpg) (http://s1072.photobucket.com/user/ghall80/media/IMG5005MAR_1.jpg.html)
Mike Mitten lives in Beach Park, Illinois. Woodsmanship was learned early on during camping and fishing trips with his father, and through Boy Scouting where he earned the highest rank of Eagle. Mike received his bachelors’ degree in biology in 1983 from Northern Illinois University, and has made a thirty year career in the pharmaceutical industry. He is currently employed as a dedicated member of a research team that discovers new treatments for cancer. Mike has hunted with the bow and arrow for over 45 years, cutting his bowhunting teeth on the family’s vacation property and surrounding Chequamegon National Forest in north central Wisconsin. His passion for bowhunting whitetail deer is offset each year by annual solo bowhunting adventures to distant western states, Canada, or Alaska. Over the years, Mike has frequently shared his stories and experience by authoring articles published in hunting magazines such as North American Whitetail, Bowhunter, Traditional Bowhunter Magazine, Trad Archers World, Professional Bowhunter Society Magazine, and Bow and Arrow Hunting. He also encourages membership in local and state hunting organizations along with national organizations such as Professional Bowhunter Society, Comptons, and Pope and Young Club.
Mike attributes his life’s passion for the outdoors and bowhunting success to an understanding family. Following a long journey building self-reliance and redefining the definition of failure, Mike has found reward in every hunting trip. He is now able to teach his own children and help them accept the stewardship and responsibility each generation has for conservation of our natural resources. Mike’s experiences as a solo hunter with a video camera in one hand and a bow in the other have enabled him to contribute as a co-producers of the award winning films Primal Dreams and Essential Encounters (www.brothersofthebow.com). He has published his first book, One with the Wilderness (Passions of a Solo Bowhunter). Mike wrote multiple chapters for a book compiled by Don Higgins called, Real World Whitetail Icons (…in Their Own Words). Mike is a member of Sitka Gear’s Athlete staff where his field tests, advice and suggestions help with improving the functionality of hunting gear and apparel. He is a member of Wensel/Mitten Productions, whose videos and books go a long way to help non-hunters understand our passions for the chase and the true spirit of the hunt. Mike is also on the Professional Bowhunter Society’s speaker’s bureau.

I was honored to be ask by Gary to front this seminar day. It may seem as I will be the main attraction, but this should be a good place for you to meet and make friends with like minded bowhunters. During the Q&A discussions there will be an opportunity for everyone attending to inform, motivate and inspire us as well. Thanks Gary, and I hope to meet many of you there. Mike

Mike is a very knowledgeable guy. Hey.. I've SLEPT with the man (separate beds of course). I'm here to tell you just that story alone will be worth the price of admission. bw

Wish I were closer, Mike does a great job on whatever topic he speaks on. Interested to hear what all was covered, I'm sure all that were able to attend went away with more than what they came with.
-
Mike did three seminars in one!! His first was on solo hunting, then his Whitetail calling methods the he capped it off with a presentation on Bart Schleyer. It was great to talk to him.
