SUNDBAR DRIFTER
This friendly, eye-catching gelding is ready to go in any direction you choose. Drifter is a handsome dappled buckskin with a great mind and willing attitude and with the same breeding that has dominated both rodeo and ranch programs. We owned the mare that he is out of and started Drifter from the ground up. He is already proving his quality at ranching. He has gathered cattle in big country in Colorado and Utah, roped young calves in the pasture, head and heeled calves for branding, and worked in a feedlot where he pulled, sorted, and shipped cattle. He's well versed on trails in the mountains and through town. He is confident around bicycles, traffic, and strollers. He crosses bridges, water, logs, and rough, steep, brushy terrain. He rides out alone or in a group. He is quiet on the trails. He is well started in the arena... loping circles, tracking calves, going around the barrel pattern. He picks up both leads. He's smooth and willing in all gaits. Drifter works off both direct and indirect rein and leg and voice cues. Drifter is patient, sensible and handles pressure. We've had many different riders on him including three of our own children (aged 13, 11, and 8). He is happy to meander down a trail with novice riders or get a job done with more experienced riders. He is "meet you at the gate" friendly. Drifter hauls well, loads easily, and backs out of the trailer. We’ve hauled him long distances camping out and checking cattle. He is vet and farrier approved. He is up to date on dental float, vaccinations, and deworming. If you’re looking for a family type horse, or a ranch or rodeo horse, Drifter will fit the bill!
