[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1771615, member: 40587"] His dam was a Mr. Gunsmoke granddaughter I sold Dan 15 years ago. Gunsmoke was a hell of a cutting horse, but didn;t go so far in NCHA because of the chrome prejudice thing back the, So Dale concentrated on Reining with him, and he was phenominal. So many of his foals were crop-outs and had to be registered as Paints back then. Today they would all have had AQHA papers. He is also regarded as a great broodmare sire. That mare also had Poco, Jessie James and Peppy San on her papers. This colt sure had the pedigree to cut a cow! This gal has hung around Dan since she was 12, one of those horse crazy gals. She is a pretty damn good can chaser, but her barrel horses are all idiots...like most are these days. Dan started this colt, putting her in the saddle and was always in the arena with her. This past year he let her take him to ride on her own, and I reckon she doesn't know how to ride anything but a crazy barrel horse with no brakes. She wouldn;t listen to me anyhow, she is a protogee(sp)?) of a local barrel racer who produces 1D horses that are pure idiots, but are faster than the word of God. Takes two men on each side to get them in the arena, and 20 acres to get them stopped, after they come out of the arena where they just blew everyone away, often the fastest by .5 to a whole second. She won't be getting on Frank again. I have learned alot just from this thread about the dairy cow thing. These cows are all 3/4 Braunvieh 1/4 Brown Swiss except for one that is 50/50.
