A country boy, hailing from the heart of North Carolina, Michael loved hunting since his childhood, and as he grew up, dreamt of earning a living by hunting. He was taught by his father to fish and hunt, and his love for these sports grew stronger and stronger, so that when he was a teenager, he started participating and competing in hunting events and competitions. Eventually, Michael won the Realtree Grand America Turkey Calling Contest which made Realtree notice his hunting skills. He was later offered work by Realtree to cooperate with them as a hunter, so in 1994, Michael joined Team Realtree, and started taking a camera along with him on his hunting journeys. At first, he was only the cameraman in the show “Realtree Road Trips” but later, he became the producer of the show, and finally it’s host.

Michael was inspired to become a hunter by looking at hardcore hunters like Fred Bear, Ted Nugent and Chuck Adams. He is also quoted as saying that he was inspired by real Americans such as the brave men and women of the Armed Forces – his quote “Do not ban guns, ban idiots” is very famous among the hunters. Being the host of “Realtree Road Trips” which airs on Outdoor Channel, Michael found fame and launched himself into the spotlight.

Of course, being a part of all these successful television shows has had significance in adding to Michael’s wealth over the years.
