 Youth Hunts for Kids with Life-Threatening Illnesses 

This is one of the things MFF loves the most is the Putting the "U" in Hunt program and being able to be part of these kids' lives and just letting them step away from their tough daily challenges and experience a Wyoming Elk hunt!

"Putting the 'U' in Hunt"
Hunts for Youths with Life-Threatening Illnesses.
The Smiles Say It All!!
The Muley Fanatic Foundation (MFF) has organized a program "Putting the 'U' in Hunt" for the last 11 years. This program is a partnership with the Wyoming Game & Fish Department to receive Commissioner Licenses for youths with life-threatening illnesses. The youths are found by word of mouth and MFF has averaged 10 to 12 youths each year. If you know of a youth, please reach out to the MFF Headquarters at (307) 875-3133.

There is so many businesses, organizations, and local individuals that have been so instrumental in making this program such a success and these youths experiencing memorable and successful hunts. Thank you for all those involved!
