"Barlnks Mr Machoman" is a direct son of Barlinks Machoman. I first saw him as a yearling when they needed him body shaved for a show. He was standing at Minyard's in Riverside, CA. Barlinks Machoman was there too at the time. I could not afford to breed to him, so I bred to his son. I was impressed with "Mister's" kind disposition when I was body shaving him, and I saw him travel in the bullpen and liked the way he moved well enough. He was balanced and athletic, and traveled with his hind end engaged and under himself. He was a very kind horse, easygoing and gentle to handle, especially for a yearling stud colt. The photo of him was taken as a yearling. He placed third at the world as a three year old. In his four year old year he was headed to the Pinto World Show, then on to the Paint World Show. He colicked and died on the way there. |

"Bright Socks is the first good mare I ever had," said R.B. Shields, one of the premier breeders of paint show horses of all time. (taken from March, '01 Paint Horse Journal, pg 68.) She is one of the best known producing daughters of APHA Supreme Champion, Yellow Mount. Not only is she a National Champion at Halter, she is a Reserve National Champion in Calf roping, also earning points in trail and Western Pleasure. In addition to winning the Nationals, she also produced a National Halter Champion. She produced thirteen registered APHA foals, with more than half earning show records. She is a producer of mulitple Superior Halter Horses, including "Very Impressive," who earned 116 halter points. |

"Croton Oil" Croton Oil was believed by most to be a favorite son of Leo because he carries the stamp and style of Leo more than any other horse. Born in 1955, he ran AA. He was a Leading Sire of AQHA Champions, with ROM Race Offspring AQHA Champion Offspring, Superior Halter Offspring, ROm Arena Offspring, and also the sire of Producing Daughters. |
 |
"Dateline" World Ch., World Ch. Sire. 398 Open Halter Points, 45 Grands, 27 Reserves. Sire of money earners in Halter, Longe Line, and Pleasure. OLWS Negative. He feels like a "big horse" when you stand next to him, but he is one of the most beautiful moving halter stallion I have ever seen. He absolutely floats at the lope, always balanced, soft easy jog, clean lead changes and never hangs a back lead after a change. He is something else! |
 |
"Doc Sands" AQHA was sixteen hands tall, deep dappled golden palomino with a full, bright white mane and tail and high stockings in back and a blaze face. He has no Doc Bar breeding. When they sent in name choices with his registration application, all three were taken. AQHA sent back his name with a randomly assigned name, completely unrelated to his pedigree. He was extremely athletic. He was an alternate on the 1972 US Olympic Jumping team when the Olympics were held in Mexico City. He was so gentle that he went on trail rides to the river, ridden in only a halter and leadrope, played and swam with the kids and with mares all around him. Never made a peep. Everyone loved him. His sire was a very talented little reining horse named Fred Buck, by Pretty Buck. |
 |
"Docs Enchantress" , by "Doc Sands" was my "special horse of all time." I never owned her, but I loved her like she was mine. I broke her as a two year old in trade for her yearling full brother, ESP Dream. I was to ride her for 90 days to complete the deal. She was the first horse I ever trained for someone else, and the first QH too. She was so smart, that by the time her ninety days was up, she could be ridden with no saddle and bridle, knew her leads perfectly, could open, go through and close a gate, again with no saddle or bridle. Her jog was smooth as glass. She could lope so slow that you could ask her to lope in a 12 by 24 corral. She could lope a figure eight in a pen that size, with simple lead changes, no bridle or saddle. No Kidding. She was irreplaceable as a lesson horse. When foaling time came, she got a week off before, and a week off after. I held her baby on a lead in the middle of the ring, and she was back on the rail, teaching kids to ride. Baby got nursing breaks whenever he wanted. She was an awesome mother. I have never known a horse like that since. That was twenty years ago. |

"Fred Buck" I never saw him, but according to Dave Klesper, well known trainer of reining and working cow horses. He is even better known as a maker of custom bits, etc... He said Fred Buck "was a little horse, with so much talent it was hard to keep up with him. He could spin so fast and flat he'd give you a hangover." His sire, Pretty Buck was best known for how well he crossed on the daughters of Blackburn. Fred Buck was the result of that outstanding cross. His dam, Clover Jacket was by Blackburn and out of a Waggoner mare. |

He sure "put the fancy" on the foals of mares of all kinds, including my beloved Tess (Docs Enchantress.) She may have been a lot of great things, but a halter horse she was not. She was 100% old timey Foundation breeding. Didn't matter what you bred him to, all the babies had gorgeous necks and hips. He has 81 registered foals to date.He is a grandson of Impressive, above, and is (N/N) for HYPP. |

King was an own son of Zantanon( famous son of Little Joe by Traveler) and Jabalina( daughter of Strait Horse by Yellow Jacket by Little Rondo). King's conformation set the standard for Quarter Horses for more than a decade, but it was his cow working ability and disposition that set King apart from others.. Some of his famous get are: Royal King, King Glo, Black Gold King, King's Pistol, King Flit, Easter King, Cactus King, Poco Bueno, Continental King, Power Command, Hank H, & Gay Widow. Even though King threw speed, he's best known for his disposition, tremendous performance ability, and cow sense passed on to his offspring. With the growth in cutting, cow horse, roping, and reining events, King's bloodlines are treasured more than ever. No other stallion now living can boast such a record as King's, and only time will tell when another will equal it. |

"Leo" 1940 AQHA Sorrel Stallion, inducted into the AQHA Hall Of Fame. Double-bred Joe Reed P-3, he is probably the best known son of AQHA hall of Famer "Joe Reed II" and out of Little Fanny AQHA.

Leo was a speed horse and one of the greatest broodmare sires in the history of the AQHA. He is famous for dual use, (halter/performance) offspring with plenty of muscle, looks, brains and ability. |

"Lucky Sucker" I contacted the owners of Lucky Sucker to ask for a photo to inlcude in this website, and this is the info they included with the photo: "I have attached a photo of Lucky taken when he was 3 (1980). He died two years ago at the age of 24. He was an awesome stallion with and awesome disposition he passed onto most of his get. He was the sire of Superior Halter, ROM Arena and also a World Champion Palomino. We had many that were just great ranch and rope horses." When I opened his photo, I was most struck by his excellent bone and incredibly well made feet. You don't often see such a firm foundation under horses now a days. He looks like he could last up under years of good using. |

His sire "Pretty Boy" was a noted sire of ranch horses and a great broodmare sire. Pretty Boy was the sire of the great mares "Pretty Rosalie" and "Sheilwin."

Of those thirty-six Champions, half (18) were out of mares that were either sired by or grand get of Pretty Buck or Blackburn. Pretty Buck was a horse that "you can take your rope down on... in the pasture and ride up to anything you want to catch. He'll pull several times his weight by the saddle horn, haze broncs, take you for a pleasurable ride and, in general, make himself useful as an all-around good ranch horse."

"Shades of Luck" was a tiny little powerhouse of a mare. She was only 14.1 hh tall, pure top of the line old foundation cowhorse breeding at its best. I got to know her when she was around fifteen years old. I would ride her for her busy owners. One time on a trail ride with a friend, we were riding abreast on a dirt road, only about three feet apart. A really stupid kid on a dirt bike whipped up between us, gunned his engine and fishtailed out ahead of us. Shady never spooked, just trotted a few feet and rolled her nostrils. Another time I was sitting on her talking to a friend while they were scraping pads at a dairy and I didn't realize they were loading the wagon two feet from me. Eric dumped a huge scoop of cow manure without warning and good old Shady just raised her head about eight inches and tipped her ears back. When she was nineteen years old, and all out of shape, pregnant in a pasture, one time some guys were schooling their cutting horses and they needed one more turnback horse. I told them they could use Shady, and pretty soon, they were having so much fun on her they all bailed off of their fancy show horses wanted to ride her instead. I had to call them off and put her away, because the dummies were using her too hard. She was really, really very talented and incredibly sound minded. She was a great mom to her babies too. She was really mean and protective of her foals the first 2-3 days after she foaled. You had to take a big stick in with you to do baby stuff. Few horses look that good at 26! She had looks, talent, staying power and was a producer. She was problem free, healthwise, for as long as I knew her. Foaled 1/1/72 Reg# 0828250 |

 |
"Tardy Tuffy 1" Without doubt Tardy Tuffy 1 was one of the most elegant, massive horses we have ever had the privilege of seeing and we've seen a lot of the World & Res. World Champion halter horses... These were correct horses, bred to be sires and dams.and they were horses that were natural.......not artificially built on fat. Both he and his son, Tuffy's Two Spades, had as much or more muscle than you'll see on any horse to date and it stayed with them no matter what condition they were in. Both were just awesome horses... (Taken from the Simmelink's website.) |

She was used in the mountains as a guide horse for a rent string when she was two years old. I showed her in a BS Western Pleasure class when she had only been two weeks under saddle. She didn't win, but we got around the rail okay and didn't embarrass ourselves. Probably wasn't the smartest thing I ever did, but she was just so good... She was an easy broodmare, very fertile, great milk producer, easy to work with, never had trouble foaling. She was a good trail horse too. You could ride her anywhere. |
 |
"Triple's Titan" 1975 APHA Sorrel Overo Stallion (Triple's Image x Sands 243) He stood his entire career at R.B. Shield's ranch in Fort Worth TX, but was actually owned by Harold Hawkins.

"Tuffy's Two Spades" earned a Grand Championship the only time he was shown in halter at 2. He also went on an earned money in fence work at 3 in the Northwest Snaffle Bit Futurity. Tuffy went on and with very limited foals produced 9 APHA World/National and Res. World/National Champions in Halter and Performance. And he had several AQHA horses that earned a number of points and won futurities in the AQHA Association. Tuffy Two Spades sire died when he was 5 but he was a World Champion Halter Horse and ROM Pleasure and he was by the great Tardy Too. He was also, undoubtedly, the fanciest natural individual that we have ever had the pleasure of seeing with tremendous muscling, size (15.3+), probably weighed over 1400# but still was extremely elegant. He was a real horse, not a fad fat horse but a real horse. (taken from the Simmelink's website.) |

"Wallaby Bar" should have been a great horse. He was bred by Dean Landers, the man who stood Sonny Dee Bar for much of his career, as well as Impressive, Two Eyed Jack and Coy's Bonanza. Dean kept "Wally" until he was a two year old, and did not geld him. Just that should tell you he was a great one. Unfortunately, at the beginning of Wallaby Bar's show career, after earning just two Western Pleasure points, he broke his pelvis in a nasty trailer accident. He recovered, but was sold shortly thereafter and was never shown again. When I bred to him, he was owned by Mike and Donna Lawson of Redlands CA. They bought him when he was nearly starved to death due to a divorcing, bickering couple who forgot to feed their horses in the meantime. He was near death, but they nursed him back to health. Several years later he foundered and died. Poor sucker never had a chance to really make his mark before he died. I NEVER saw a horse make such improvements on the looks and talent of a bunch of ugly, never did anything, common looking mares, (mine not included, ;) Donna was not afraid to breed any mare of any quality, and you know what? They all came out pretty, and could lope standing still. Most had do-it-yourself dispositons, meaning most of the owners were able to break their own horses to ride. His best known baby was Wallaby's Rascal AQHA. He had a lope to die for, a head so pretty it looked like a little girl drew it, and had the looks to earn a ROM in halter. Incredible horse. Incredible producer. Incredible pedigree. More Hall of Famers in fewer generations than any other horse I ever personally knew. His dam was Wallaby Sis. She is full sister to Wallaby, AQHA, who earned over 350 halter points. She herself was a performance horse. See below. |
|
|
"Wallaby Sis" was the '82 QH Congress All Around Winner. She was a bay mare, by Croton Oil. She was an AQHA Champion, with points in halter, western pleasure, western riding, barrels, trail and reining. She was a full sister to "Wallaby," AQHA who earned over 340 halter points, back in "the day" when they were a lot harder to come by. I guess that says it for Wallaby's Sis. She certainly had talent, looks, and staying power, as well as being a wonderful producer. What a great mare! |
 |
"Win Or Lose" is best known as the sire of Sonny Dee Bar, but he was a successful racehorse in his own right, with a speed index of 85. He was a world champion producer as well as a producer of stakes winners and ROM arena. |
