I 'm looking for an aged gelding or mare for my young daughter to poke around our place on. I visited with a lady today that has a 21 year old gelding for sale. Her husband bought him 4 years ago to learn to rope on. She says that the horse is solid and very gentle for children. She also disclosed that the horse is a roarer. Says it shows up only when her husband works the horse strenuously - like heading 3 or 4 steers in a row without a rest. At our place, the horse would be used to trailride and that's about it. I've done some research on roaring today, but was wondering if anyone has any experience with it? Would you consider the horse or is this a reason to pass?
