Welcome to the Gr8 Outdoors! My name is Mitch Strobl. I am soon graduating from DePauw University in Greencastle, IN. When my college baseball career ended I had to find something to fill my time other than academics. Naturally, I turned to hunting and the outdoors. I started writing for huntinglife.com and then joined the Professional Outdoor Media Association (POMA). Soon after, I realized my college hobby could be a profession. I then started interning with POMA three years ago, learning from true industry professionals. By listening to everyones advice, my skill-set as an outdoor communicator has been constantly growing.
As a young person in the industry, I try my best to do it all; a “utility man” if you will. Writing, photography, videography, social media and new media; if it has to do with the outdoors i’m all over it. www.thegr8outdoors.com is a place where I can share my work with you. I have been very fortunate to work amongst the best in the industry, attend the industry trade shows, and even get my name and work out there in the process. I’ve met many friends, gained mentors, and have truly made the best of my college years.
Take a look around, check out the services I have to offer, and feel free to reach out to me via the contact tab. Some call what I do freelance work… I call it fun!
