Broodmares Page.
This is an over view of our broodmare herd.
Most of our broodmares are related to Curt's original ranch mare Wanda.
We have one colt (the buckskin in pics) sired by a stud bred by Mike Majors CHICS HOPE STIK (CHICA SHINE x HOPE STIK ,(& are expecting 2 next year) & 3 foals sired by a son of his out and another Mike Majors bred mare ..
We are selecting for stock with a strong desire to please, making them easy to start under saddle &, after they are riding they remember from one ride to the next what they have learned. They have enough life to go all day but once they are broke are gentle enough for kids to ride. If a horse is trying to please it makes training them a pleasure, & when they go to their new homes the desire to please doesn't go away. You can make a lazy horse ride but as soon as they go to somebody who they know wont make them tow the line they go back to doing what ever they please.
The majority of "GENTLE" horses for sale are actually lazy. While most adults with any amount of experience can ride a lazy horse just fine, little kids do not get along very well since the horse figures out real quick that they "don't have to". But put a young person on a horse who is soft & willing & you will have a horse lover for life!
