2017 Draft Cross Gelding

16.1 hh

Johnny Ringo is a striking 16.1 hand, 1,400-pound draft cross gelding with a one-of-a-kind look and a heart of gold. He’s a red roan and white paint with unique markings across his ears, head, and face that are sure to turn heads anywhere he goes. Built like a tank and made to last, Johnny Ringo is the kind of gelding that’s tough enough for the job but gentle enough for the whole family to enjoy. He’s easy to be around, good to tack up, and always willing to please.

This big, handsome gelding is a finished ranch horse in every sense of the word. He’s been used extensively for gathering, sorting, doctoring, and branding. Whether you’re moving pairs or roping one in the pasture, he’s been there and done it with a cool, calm attitude. He’s also been used to pick up bucking horses at rodeos, where he’s handled the sights and sounds of loud crowds, music, and chaos with absolute composure. Nothing seems to rattle him.

Johnny Ringo has also proven himself on the mountain. He’s been on elk hunts and packed riders through tough terrain, staying steady and dependable every step of the way. He’s sure-footed on the trail, smooth to ride, and confident in new places. Even our six-year-old nephew has moved cattle and trail-ridden him without a hiccup—he’s that safe, quiet, and broke. He’s the kind that adapts to his rider and always aims to please.

Whether you’re needing a reliable ranch partner, a seasoned trail horse, or a gentle giant for the family, Johnny Ringo fits the bill. He’s the total package—unique color, solid build, all the real-world experience, and a kind, gentle personality to match. You don’t find many this size with this kind of foundation and mind.

Horses have been apart of Coltons life since he was a little boy. He has been involved with horse sales and rodeos his entire life winning many championship buckles and all around titles. He not only has a passion for riding horses, but has always been involved in driving horses as well. Colton spent some time working as an outfitter in the mountains of Wyoming, and enjoys using horses for hunting and pack trips. Colton loves the cowboy way of life and uses our horses for real jobs. He enjoys branding in the spring and day working. He believes that really puts the foundation on our horses before we take them to the arena.
Alise grew up in Minnesota and has been obsessed with horses since she can remember. She never had the opportunity to have a horse growing up so she would try and find horses to ride or be around whenever she got the chance. In college Alise really got the opportunity to ride & train horses. She rode reining, cow horses, rope horses, and she started colts, and that became her goal, to train well rounded versatile horses. She loves getting a horse soft and supple in the arena, and believes that a good foundation is key. This was where she discovered her passion with matching the right horse to its owner. Seeing the joy it brought both horse and owner she decided to make that her life work.
Today, Alise loves roping, taking her horses up the mountain, using them for hunting, pack trips, and trail rides. She believes that's what really makes a horse. She also loves branding in the springtime and summers are filled with rodeos and ranch work.
