With movement to die for, a heart of gold and the good looks of a rugged outdoorsman, Some Touch is the kind of horse that catches your eye and then melts your heart!

Some Touch has logged more working hours on the ranch this spring than almost any other horse. Why? Because he is such a hard worker and a pleasure to ride.   He is kind, incredibly willing and a hard worker that tries really hard to understand any new job you put in front of him.  The kind of horse that makes seasoned cowboys say "I wish I had more like him."

He has seen nearly every kind of terrain and situation in his big season of ranch riding--from steep, wooded mountainsides  to rushing creek and gumbo mud, nothing has scared him or bothered him for a moment.  Some Touch has passed every test we could throw at him--working the big brandings and gatherings with the attitude of a seasoned horse.  He won't bat an eye at working dogs underfoot, new horses cutting up right next to him or bawling cows running straight at him.

Some Touch is also one of the most naturally "in the bridle" horses we have ever had come through the program, with the much vaunted "self-carriage" in his makeup.  His trot and canter are FEI worthy and when you add that to his mind and work ethic, he could make a really fun dressage or eventing horse.  At 15.3 hands (a size we consider near perfect for every job) and a huge, thick body that really fills out a rider's leg, he also makes YOU look good too. :)

We'll be getting new video and photos soon--check back often or come try him for youself.  He's pretty darn neat!
