Harper bought a producer out from Regina he had a bunch of the feather footed horses. It was a long way from Lake C harles La. to there an back. We dont have alot of the big horses down here I think the climate is to hard on them. We will have to get together an talk horses an bulls some time. We have a few rank bulls, good an tough from the river bottoms. Hard to beat one of them if you can get the fight out of them.

i imagine it's a bit of an eyeopener for someone from down there the first time they draw into a pen full of Kesler or Franklin horses up lol. I guess Calgary has one or two that might just throw you off too-some little stud named after a coconut comes to mind Wink

I dont go as much as used got alittle older married an 3 girls. You think bucking stock cost alot. We have 21 bulls an a few horses. We like to start them then sell and then do it aginWe have a little arena a if we can find some guys to get on them we buck them a couple times a week. Most of the time they fight over one muley. they aint made like we used to be

Well you and Greg can come to Medicine Hat in midAugust for the Highschool finals should be a good deal. Ohh for sure Judith they're buckers-they've just been dummy bucked but we'll probably try them with a rider next week. They're nice to handle as they were hauled to rodeos all summer with their mothers as babies. Flankman I'm pretty lucky here got a few pretty eager test pilots that will get on whatever we run under them.

Those horses came from Rudy Ostrom and would of been half brothers and sisters to that big blue roan stud I ran the last two years.


The type of horse fits, NR. They were pure draft looking and just put together real nice. Like I said, a person almost wished you could get them broke to drive because this was before the Spotted Draft Horse Association got going with their expensive crappy horses-these horses were just a sound as the day is long. The mares were still bucking a couple years ago and they would be better than 15 years old. It seems like the story goes that they were running pretty wild before they came down. But, you know how rodeo stories are........... Wink
