Kicking off our winter clinic series here today with a great mix of repeat and new faces!

Last year everyone said I needed to post our lunch schedule too, which I didn’t know what I wanted to cook before but today we’re going to have a Chilean themed day with elk empanadas de pino, avocado and celery salad, and red onion and cucumber salad. To be followed by chocolate sheetcake prepared by Brian’s mom, Kathy (it takes a village!). Pictures of lunch to follow!

Tye and Nicole both got their hardware for the year from Central Montana Reined Cow Horse Association! Tye and Renaldo got a buckle from winning the Open Bridle Spectacular at the Forsyth Futurity. Nicole and Remy took 3rd in the year-end standings for the Level 1 Non-Pro Bridle! 🎉

We would like to extend our congratulations to both these stellar pairs on their performances. Pretty amazing what these four accomplished for not much time in the show pen (horses) and for her first year going down the fence (Nicole)! 🙌 Here's to hoping Remy finds a good home to help the next person or generation earn their stripes.

Hey all, Tye’s computer is out of commission for about a week which means he doesn’t have access to his personal page. If you sent him a message and are hoping to hear back or need to get ahold of him, message him here or call/text him directly. Thank you! Hopefully the computer will be up and running again soon.

We are a little sad we only have two more days with these nice mares before they head to the Billings Livestock Sale on Saturday.

Shiny Blue Mist, “Lizzy”, is a beautiful all-around type mare that would do well in VRH type shows or general pleasure riding. Alyson has really enjoyed riding Lizzy and hopes she goes to a good home that will enjoy her potential! She sells Saturday afternoon, hip 362.

Metallic Blue Angel, “Raven”, is a two-year-old by Metallic Malice. This is a special little filly with tons of potential. She has lots of cow that wants to work in position. She is flashy, happy, and catches everyone’s eye. We would love to keep her in our program and finish her as a cowhorse or cutter. She als says she would be a rope horse. She sells Saturday afternoon as hip 242.

Both mares will be at the riding preview Friday afternoon at Miller’s Pavilion and Saturday morning before the sale at the BLS arena. Come look for us there! And no worries if you don’t plan to come in person. Both will be available through the on-line auction as well!

We wrapped up the end of the show season last week at the NILE and got to show in the Metra for the first time. While the reining and cow scores didn’t quite reflect the show we had hoped for, this little stallion’s quiet demeanor shown through and he added another $400 to his LTE with it only being his second show, now being a money earner both times out.

We would like to thank Starlight Performance Horses for entrusting us with the training and showing of their future herd stallion and to David Hollenback Photography and Cowgirl Captures Photography for capturing the moments this guy shown. ✨

Also, check out that first photo for one spicey steer!

Tye keeps saying we need to post something other than our show successes. So, I will now start flooding our page with the nice sale horses we have in. More to come so stay tuned!

This little filly, "Raven" as we call her, sells October 25th at the BLS Fall Special Performance Catalog Sale. Metallic Blue Angel, a beautiful 2023 blue roan mare, is by Metallic Malice (LTE $6,000, PE >$263k) and out of a Jerry Lee’s Surprise (LTE $44,500, PE >$586k) mare with 1D barrel and progeny earnings. Raven will be wrapping up 90-days with at the time of the sale and will be ready to go in any direction. This is a special little filly with tons of potential. She has lots of cow, wants to work in position, and wants to work! She is flashy, happy, and catches everyone’s eye. We would love to keep her in our program and finish her as a cowhorse or cutter. She also says she would be happy to be a rope horse and her dam was a 1D barrel horse so she should run too. Raven has royalty on both sides and her pedigree screams performer.
