Where would that sale be? Meadow Lake? Is it a weekly affair, or do they just have one once in awhile?

Good looking horse! Is that line on his flank a sutured incision, or just a natural color pattern?

Nice pair of buckskins. The grey looks to be little slight in the hip. JMO, but it could be the angle of the camera.
There are sure some good buys to be had now. The horse market
here in the states leaves a lot to be desired.
I hope he does good with them. Thanks for sharing.

Trading horses, or acquiring new horses is always a fun deal. Sometimes there is profit in the fun, and sometimes you pay for the fun, but it always keeps life interesting.
Looks like all three sure have "potential," and that is good enough at this point if they were bought cheap enough and you have plenty of grass.
Good luck. :wink:

Trading horses in this country isn't quite what it used to be with the closure of the kill plants.
Through the past say 10 years or more I've had an avid horse trader involved in my life and I must say the one thing they teach you is any horse is for sale for the right price and not to get to attached to any of them. Saying that I also have some very fond memories of "horse trading" trips with my parents.

I'll garantee that's not a sutured incision -might be a bush scar or a wolf bite lol. Brent and Brad Brooks bought the Meadow Lake yard and plan on having a horse sale every month or so. Ty will start all three and go from there-I think the grey might stay awhile-he doesn't have much money in them I'd be embarrassed to say how much lol.
