Utah’s R & K Hunting Company Attracts Hunting Celebrities

Jan. 8, 2013 - PRLog -- The R & K Hunting Company of Utah, Wyoming, and Montana is one of the nation’s premier hunting outfitters for trophy mule deer, elk, and Shiras Moose. During the recently completed 2012 hunting season, R & K Hunting Company attracted some of the biggest television celebrity names in the hunting industry to harvest trophy animals on their more than one million acres of pristine private hunting land.

Practicing Cooperative Management Wildlife Unit (CWMU) techniques, R & K ensures the availability of mature animals by making sure their lands are not over-hunted each year while they build up the number of healthy animals on their leased land over three states. In addition to top quality hunting ranches featuring a variety of terrains, R & K hires only the best hunting guides who know the hunting grounds intimately, since they conduct spotting, stalking and herd management year round.

The R & K Hunting Company provides luxury accommodations along with chef prepared meals. No wonder some of the most widely recognized hunters around chose R & K to be their guides during the 2012 hunting season. The NRA even scheduled a special elk hunt with R & K that will take place in October 2013. The winner of a long-range shooting contest will receive a Weatherby Mark V Accumark rifle and Krpteck gear.

Babe Winkelman of Outdoor Secrets

With over 30 years as the television host of various fishing and hunting shows, Babe Winkelman harvested his first Shiras Moose with R & K Hunting Company in the fall of 2012. Featured in Outdoor Secrets and other shows on the national NBC Sports Network, Destination American, AMG TV and a host of other local cable channels, Babe has hunted all over the globe for all types of animals. He still had a Shiras Moose on his bucket list which he can now cross off due to his successful hunt.

R & K co-owner Justin Richins invited Babe to hunt in the mountains of Utah where Babe took his moose. “The R & K Hunting Company is the most professional hunting outfitters I have ever hunted with in more than 30 years of hunting all over the world,” said Babe of these exceptional hunting guides.

Rick and Julie Krueter of Beyond the Hunt

Beyond the Hunt’s Rick and Julie Krueter joined R & K Hunting Company this fall, with Julie Krueter taking a beautiful mule deer in full velvet during the archery hunt in August 2012.  She returned in October and took a bull elk on October 26 with her Precision Shooting Equipment (PSE) crossbow made specifically for women.  Rick harvested a 205” mule deer on Halloween with R & K during the rifle hunt.  

These hunts with R & K will be televised during the 2013 season on The Outdoor Channel.  Hunting Illustrated also featured Julie’s velvet mule deer archery hunt in their magazine as well as in their online edition.

Spook Span of Spook Nation
