We have made the decision to put Shooter in the Top Gun Horse Sales in April. Shooter is a 2020 Grey AQHA Registered Gelding that we’ve had since he was 3 years old. He has been a pleasure to ride since day 1. He is quiet and gentle, the laid back type. Give him time off and he’s the same horse as the day you stepped off. He spent all last summer heeling steers and his time on the back end is showing off. He has a great stop and looks to shut the clock down. He would make a great asset in anyone’s string. Shooter still has 2 years of eligibility in the futurities and is eligible for The Breeders Elite Roping Incentive. Don’t miss your chance to own this well put together gelding! Here are some runs from the practice pen this weekend. More videos and pictures to come. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

Joe Reed II
Inducted into the American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame in 1994.
With a bad left knee and an injured right foot, Joe Reed II did not have a lot in his favor. At least not as a racehorse, but the sorrel stallion had courage, heart and speed.

Bred and born on John Wesley House’s ranch near Cameron, Texas, Joe Reed II was by Joe Reed and out of Nellene by Fleeting Time (TB). The sorrel was born in 1936 and impressed House with his looks.

As a foal, Joe injured his left knee on barbed wire and spent his early years hobbling around. This did not deter Bert Wood of Arizona. It took some doing, but Wood convinced House to sell the 5-year-old stallion.

“Joe” was 7 when Wood entered the gimpy stallion in a Class B race at Hacienda Moltacqua racetrack. Joe had never seen a starting gate or run down a straightaway, but Wood still believed in his horse.

“Some horses are born to run,” Wood said. “Joe Reed II was one of those. It didn’t matter how old he was or how crippled. He did what he’d been born to do.”

Joe won his first race by half a length and the second by two lengths. His third race was the championship speed trials at Moltacqua. Joe Reed II beat the great Clabber, but busted his knee wide open during the race, ending his career.

The races were run in a three-week span and the performances earned Joe the 1942-1943 World Champion Racing Stallion title. It took a little while for Joe’s popularity to catch on as a stallion. His first year at stud, he was bred to only range mares, which were at best described as average. By 1947, however, he was commanding a $100 stud fee and Wood was turning away horsemen.

Joe Reed II sired cutting, roping and running horses. His best known son was Leo, a 1989 AQHA Hall of Fame inductee. Other well-known get were Little Sister W, Joak, Joe Queen and Tonta Lad, all AAA runners.

Joe Reed II died in 1966 at 30. He was inducted into the American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame in 1994.

Biography updated as of March 1994.

Shooter hasn’t been rode since the middle of November. We are back in the roping pen now! He got rode a couple days this week and in true team roper fashion I had to run a few steers on him each night… it’s sure nice when they can have 2 months off and you can climb on and have them do their job! Hopefully I can get him to a couple more jackpots this winter and have him tuned up for spring to be someone’s #1.

Our new addition comes next week! Looking forward to crossing her on BC All Ways Leo!

4 year old Sanchez is the bomb

4 year old shooter enjoying the slow down steer in the pen his name is “Steve” he doesn’t get many breaks because ol Steve is good for the good heel horses and the greener horses.

One month of rope horse training on Sanchez on the heeling end went a long ways in the AZ sun!! Keep an eye out for more progress of this four year old as the summer goes on! I think it’s fun to watch them go from unsure to getting better slowly. Love the process! Watching the first few runs to when I got home at the end is sure a nice change and a great sign of progress!

Star

Star came to AZ for a quick tune up and to be ready to go for the summer of jackpotting when his owner gets time after he’s done calving. He’s been a pleasure to run steers on and tune up. Slow steers go a long ways bringing some of these nice head horses along when they have a good foundation to work with.

Phoenix’ oldest foal is 2 this year and we are looking forward to getting him started! This spring she will be crossed on Highpoint Perfomance Horses’ stallion Winners Version, which we believe will compliment her well 🤍🔥 I’ve owned this mare since 2 days old and she is 15 this year. She has qualified for multiple amateur rodeo finals, been an average winner, has many 1D wins and places, as well as filled my pro card. An old disc injury we found this fall helped with my decision to retire her from barrels. She is cleared to have foals, and I have always reminded myself to love the horse first and the sport second, this mare owes me nothing🤍.
