[QUOTE="Alan, post: 214115, member: 378"] I agree with cypress, can't go wrong with a sound, well broke, mature QH gelding. The part I agree with most is don't get one because it is a bargin or cheap, you'll be sorry. I'll add also don't get one because you like the color, a color you like is a bonus, if you can find a well mannered, willing horse, you guys will be in love with that animal for many years. For you guys that I been through this before.... sorry. I'll disagree or define the word "bombproof" when used with horses. There is no such thing, no horse is ever bombproof... "any horse any day" can hurt you. The best mannered horse can still spook at a 4 wheeler coming down the road and toss you. All I'm saying is you need to know how to handle horse and always remember "any horse any day". John Lyons was at a horse clinic in Albany, Oregon a couple of months ago. Not his, many horse gurus where there and it was a trade fair also, trailers, tack, etc. Anyway he was on a 4 yr old and showing the crowd how to make the horse soften by turning him in circles. Horses spooks, rears, flips over, John Lyons with a broken collar bone. I'll add this horse was a little green, John Lyons isn't. Alan [/QUOTE]
