Mick was born in Canton, Oklahoma on March 1, 1941. He was raised by Leon and Lenna McClure Myers. He graduated from Canton High School in 1959. After graduation he worked for Elliott Brothers Construction Company in Oklahoma City and operated heavy machinery.
In January 1966, he was drafted into the United States Army and served until he was honorably discharged in December 1967. After serving, he operated a custom combine service and cattle operation. Between wheat harvest and winter cattle responsibilities, he used his CDL to haul livestock, grain, and farm implements.
