PEACHES



LIL GEORGIA PEACH
aka "Peaches"


2004 AQHA/PHBA dark golden palomino mare. Peaches is by Flicka Miss McCue and a full sister to Lil Bit.  She is a gorgeous girl with lots of personality.  We have high hopes for a great showing career just like mom.  She is very quiet and level headed but she can get up and go when asked.  Peaches started showing in the spring of 2010 and qualified for the WSCA Champ Show in all speed events.  She was part of the 1st place 4-In-A-Line team at the 2010 WSCA Champ show.  She has been right behind her mom, Flicka, for high point at many shows.  Our son decided to take her to the 2010 R & J Spring Games Series - after having not ridden her in nearly 2 years and with no practice on her at alll!  He took the Reserve Overall Champion in his age division - even after missing the first show.  Peaches is great in the sorting pen, very enjoyable on trails and is just starting in the mounted shooting and doing well.

"Buddy" is just that - everyone's buddy. He is very laid back and easy going.  Buddy was started in the spring of 2010 and really enjoys his riding time.  Having a person on his back means he gets ALL the attention and that is just what he wants!  He has never offered to buck and really tries to do what is asked of him.  With about 30 rides on him, our 15 year old son decided he wanted to try his hand at mounted shooting and Buddy was his choice.  Buddy took to it great - flinched from the very first shot and nothing after that.  He has already attended one shoot and did very well -  not asking him for any speed yet - just getting him out and letting him experience the sights and sounds.

"LIL BIT"


Lil Bit is a 2002 AQHA/PHBA golden palomino gelding out of our mare, Flicka Miss McCue and a full brother to our mare, Peaches. He is very quick and athletic like his mom. He ropes, sorts, pens, does all the WSCA game events (he qualified for the 2008 WSCA Champ Show in most events) and he is a very quiet, solid trail horse. NOT for a beginner - he has a lot of speed and power and, though he handles well, he needs an experienced rider who will not be intimidated by his speed and takeoff.
