We propose a selection region based multi-hop routing protocol for random mobile ad hoc networks, where the selection region is defined by two parameters: a reference distance and a selection angle. At each hop, a relay is chosen as the nearest node to the transmitter that is located within the selection region. By assuming that the relay nodes are randomly placed, we derive an upper bound for the optimum reference distance to maximize the expected density of progress and investigate the relationship between the optimum selection angle and the optimum reference distance. We also note that the optimized expected density of progress scales as $\Theta(\sqrt{\lambda})$, which matches the prior results in the literature. Compared with the spatial-reuse multi-hop protocol in \cite{Baccelli:Aloha} recently proposed by Baccelli \emph{et al.}, in our new protocol the amount of nodes involved and the calculation complexity for each relay selection are reduced significantly, which is attractive for energy-limited wireless ad hoc networks (e.g., wireless sensor networks).
