Past President - Dean Hall
Hello fellow bow hunters! At 60 or so years young, I love small game as well as bowfishing and big game hunting with my bow, as does my wife Ellen. As MBH Past President, and both of us being members of Land O Lakes Bowmen Archery Club, we are also members of other many state and national organizations that protect and promote our interest.
I am a long time Bowhunter Education Instructor, a Hunter Safety Instructor and level 2 USA-NFAA Archery Coach and a scorer for Commemorative Bucks of Michigan. I have served in many capacities both district and state wide for MBH through the many past years, as well as served as MBH representative on National Councils and will continue to promote the mission of MBH as a regular MBH member. I also serve as MBH representative with the Michigan Sportsmen Against Hunger program, a 501c3 organization of collective groups that coordinates sportsmen and sportswomen, with processors and food banks, pantries, shelters, in channeling precious resources into opportunities for a better community.
Like you, my passion is archery and bow hunting. And like you, I am deeply concerned with the future of bow hunting on a state and national level. That is why I belong to MBH. The benefit is meeting with other like minded people with identical passions to interact, share, learn, explore and expand beyond limits most bow hunters accept and create long lasting friendships and connections in the process. There is also the ability to not only participate at MBH events, but to become involved even just a little to help our organization grow as well as reinforce other important programs in our state like the National Archery in the Schools Program (NASP), MSAH and Benefit 4 Kids (B4K).
As MBH Past President, I am proud of where this organization came from and where it is going. Like any lifespan of an organization, the road hasn’t always been smooth. And like any successful organization we rely on 3 things, our Constitution the compass of our Board and Officers as well as and especially, the support and participation of our membership. As an MBH member, one of the best things you can do is become involved especially at your district level. Contact your Governor, introduce yourself and offer assistance in your district. That is where I started, And the friends I have made through the years and things I have helped MBH accomplish, have been awesome!
