    13 year old Rhen is working to elude the dread, and the venery, Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD)
    Above the plains and to the hills
    Ok, mountains..got the chills?
    The Royal Rut Hunting Preserve awaits your gun
    Elk, Wapiti, big ‘ol deer huntin’ just for fun
    In your scope or open sight you will observe
    A monster Bull, your reticle don’t swerve!
    Make your shot true and swift
    To get him home you’ll need a lift!



    Rhen and his family left Oklahoma for the mountains of Utah.
    Rhen has his own "Trax" chair...perfect for the rough terrain of an elk hunt!
    However, to get his "Trax" from Oklahoma to Utah took some special logistics.
    Special thanks to Toni Brock, and Yvonne Talarico at Adcom Worldwide, and Jon Zarat at JZ Logistics LLC for donating the transportation from Oklhoma to Utah and back again, with the finset white-glove service!!!

    Once in Utah, Rhen met his guide Kelly Hymas, who took him and his family out on 5600 acres of prime elk habitat (The Royal Rut Ranch).
    While scouting and spotting, it didn't take long and our dead eye hunter to lock on to his prey!
    Boom! Rhen had a 300 bull!!
    Nothing like elk backstraps, steaks, roasts and burgers to take home!!! Rhen decided that he wanted a Europen mount for his wall at home What a great experience for a kid from the plains!!!
