Any day of the week you can
find us competing on our horses that are FOR SALE, that is why we can
offer our horses, proven, solid, and seasoned. Look for us at WTRC,
USTRC, World Series, and the ACTRA ropings, amateur rodeos, AQHA,
APHA, NCHA, NRCHA, or Ranch Versatility Shows.
Our family first started into the cattle industry in 1952, cattle were bred and sold for breeding and slaughter purposes. At that time, operations included a state-of-the-art breeding program, pasture grazing and commercial feedlots, keeping an emphasis on improving genetics.
Our horses were used to move, doctor, sort and gather cattle a well
trained, respective good looking horse was very appreciated. As the years have passed, we have gone
from running many cattle to extensively breeding and training performance horses. Our philosophy is, “A side a fine cowboy is one fine horse”, and our ideas are further extended into the roping arena, cutting pen, pack string, show ring, and especially a first horse.
We are proud to have produced many fine horses throughout the years, most of which have gone on to excel in various disciplines. Our performance horses go through a selection process and any that we believe do not fit our program or are not up to standard are culled. In making a fine performance horse there are many fundamentals that each horse must first
accomplish, before advancing into a particular program. We feel that we have a responsibility to our clients to offer them high end proven performance horses that can take them to the winners circle. We have sold horses to numerous NFR Qualifiers, APHA and AQHA Champions, NCHA, NRCHA, NSBA, IHSA, and NRHA Finalists, Professionals and their families.
OUR POLICY TO YOU: We represent our horses with honesty.
We are "the brand you have come to know and trust", our horses
perform.

MFO CHINKS
2005 AQHA SORREL GELDING
X Son of Colonel Freckles and Doc O' Lena out
of a daughter by Doc's Lynx
News: Chinks and Paje will be competing in the
2010 Glory Days Extreme Cowboy Race.
Chinks has to be one of my all-time favorite horses, he is
absolutely drop dead gorgeous and has a personality to go with his
looks. He always wants attention, but is not one to walk all over you,
has a very quiet demeanor. He is very mature, and takes everything in
stride. He has been headed and heeled on in the arena, and think he
could be a leading calf horse. He stays quiet and free in the box, pins
his ears and really rates, can run, and handle himself with the best of
them. If you just want a horse to hop on once and year and enjoy and
quiet ride he is quite that also. He is fun to ride outside, with watch
and cow, or go and doctor some yearlings on him. Crosses water, bridges
and logs, good with a slicker or any other tricks you might come up
with. Hop on him bareback with a halter and head out for a quick gather,
has also been ridden in old west re-enactments. He is a looker and a
real back pocket kind of guy. He is UTD on dental and shoeing,
guaranteed sound and to have to vices. Come and ride him you will fall
in love! I can't say enough about Chinks, he is a GOOD citizen.

TRIPLE CHICKS GOLD
ZAN PARR BAR AND TRIPLE CHICK
2002 AQHA PALOMINO GELDING
UPDATE: They are unstoppable!
6/13/10 this team just won Charlie Crawford High Money winner of the
weekend winning a new TRAILER, High money heeler of the day, three
breast collars, and over $3500 in cash, plus more.
UPDATE: The duo once again, did
it....won a new SADDLE and $1300 cash at the Townsend WTRC roping.
UPDATE: Checks and
Chad just won 13th and Northern States Invitational WTRC Roping out of
1600 teams.
NEW VIDEO! Checks is an
extremely handsome golden palomino with a gentle persona. He has been
one of Paje's personal horses that she has used for ranch use, hauled to
ropings, and ran the barrels on him. He stands 15.1 hands and weighs
1175, outstanding to haul, shoe, handle, bathe and love. He has been
hauled and won on in the heading, heeling, barrels, poles and goat
tying. He will stand quietly at the trailer all day and gets along well
with other horses. He has been hauled by a #1 lady and by higher numbers
also. He is a solid barrel gelding, will take a quiet or an aggressive
rider to the pay window, knows the pattern, just have to sit.
He will work all phases on the ranch and is not scared of new sights. He
will walk out in the mountains, cross water, bridges, and logs. I can’t
say enough good things about Checks. If you want to buy 1 horse and
collect the checks, better load him up this weekend! He has no vices and
is a one of a kind sweetheart.
