In our business, we hear a lot about legends. This week we lost a true legend of the business. When I think about what makes a man a legend, I think about the quality of his work, the way he operates, and interacts with his peers, but most of all what makes a man a legend is how he provides for his family, how he creates meaningful relationships and how he will do anything to help a friend or neighbor.

As I sit and reflect on the last five years we have been at Checotah Livestock Market so many memories and great times come to mind about Josh Withrow. Josh always operated with honesty and integrity. Those are two things that Josh had that you will not hear anyone dispute. As cattlemen, and business owners we, along with many others, looked up to Josh. There are a lot of great men and women in our business, but this week we lost one of the very best. Without a doubt, we know Josh is in heaven today. Pain free, worry free, buying horned cattle and hunting in some of the most beautiful country he has ever seen.

To the Withrow family, we love you, and we are thinking of you.

Rest easy, LEGEND.

This is a super nice 3yr old gelding that is Royal Crown Roping Futurity eligible! He has seen it all on the ranch and was started in a Cowhorse program. We have roped the smarty and ran a few slow steers on him as well! He is easy to get along with and is kind to be around! Not many at his age have the bone and substance this one does. He stands 14’3 and wears a number one shoe! Check out his video! Consigned to Shawnee Horse Sales LLC May 27th. He is hip number 58!

“I have to have discipline.
If I'm a schoolteacher, I have to have discipline; otherwise, the children will run me out of the classroom. Or I can’t teach them, because they are walking around the classroom looking out the window and they aren’t paying any attention.
I don’t have to have a club or a gun to do that.

So it’s got to come from us to the horse.
And what is your responsibility? It’s no different than raising a child.

So this horse is running over you, walking on you, doing things you don’t want.
Why would you let him do that?
Who is the instructor?
Who is the teacher?
Who is taking care of this outfit?

All you are doing is offering this horse a good deal, no different than you would offer it to me. I have to run this outfit or it’s going to run me. If I'm not running that company or keeping that ship on course, I'm going to run it into the ground or run it into another ship. So I have a responsibility". - Ray Hunt.
