BitelySam is Michigan's newest Orange Hat!  His real name is Kevin Whelchel and he's from Bitely! MI.  Kevin first shot with us in Muskegon in August, shot Rifleman at Watervliet in September and heeded the call of our forefathers by taking a hat in Niles this weekend. 

BitelySam did a great job and was a gift from above by diving into a short staffed shoot and actively RSOing all day and giving instructional help where needed!

Join me in welcoming BitelySam to the cadre!

Great to see you again BitelySam. I bet that it won't be long before your "handle" get s acronymized. I watched your instructing a few times this weekend and you did an excellent job.

Holy cow, as Swamp Thing would say  you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a new orange or blue hat on the west side of the state.

Thanks for stepping up Bitleysam.
