Yesterday we had our first small win. To most it might not seem like much but to us it means so much. Our program is not large by any means but we always work as hard as we can with what we have. For the past year we have gone to a handful of shows with 2 horses. 2 horses that no one else wanted. Heather Suttons stud horse Short Oaks Legacy was passed over by 2 trainers and came to us a year and a half ago not too far ahead of our then 3 year old Filly who had just been started 😬🙈. People thought we where crazy bringing them to the show pen last November but we kept at it. These horses have not gone to a single pre work. Instead our main helper, turnback rider and loper has been our dedicated 10 year old daughter who had never been around cutting horses until just under 2 years ago. To say we are proud of her is beyond an understatement. This may only be a 2nd place win to some but to us its just the beginning. This little stud horse tried his heart out this weekend and finally brought home his first check. Our mare was 1 out of the money on Friday marking her highest score yet with just over a year of training. We still have work to do but we finally are making headway. Trust in your horses and yourself the rest will come in time.

If you have a punchy kid and they wanna gather cattle, drag calves and do "Cowboy"stuff I got the perfect punchy pony ! Bama is 13.2 hands and thick! Hes as tuff as a 20 penny nail and wont back down from a momma cow thats three times his size. He will walk down into the river and swim with your kid or ride threw a sprinkler. He loves the water and loves to work! The downfall is he's big motored loves to work. Bama has a ton of go and while he loves kids and has proven he will take care of them in the arena and out In his brain he's a Porsche with the body of a damn go-kart. Did I tell you he is easy to catch? This was my everyday using horse when I moved back to Oklahoma and Missouri. He's big enough for a 180 lb guy to ride or a woman to ride. He damn sure has no quit to him and will literally go all day if you asked him to. He is a people pleaser. Surely some body needs this punchy Pony for their kid to go branding on or go to a play day!

07/10/2023

We had the perfect weather today to work the horses on some fresh cattle. When good help is hard to find you train the 10 year girls to be turn back help.
