Description:
I bought this horse about two months ago but he is the only animal on our place and we only ride him or mess with him a couple times a month and I think he needs more attention than that. He is an extremely nice horse but would do better with more attention and other horses around. Below is the ad from when I bought him. You can call me (Ricky) at 575-760-2755 or the woman I bought him from for more information. Her number is listed at the bottom of the ad.



If you are looking for a well broke ranch gelding that is gentle for anyone, including the kiddos, then take a look at Sketch. I am his second owner and have owned him for over a year. I bought him off of the ranch out in West Texas that had bred and raised him. Sketch is a 12 year old GRADE sorrel gelding, 14.3hh and very well built with a good hip, wide chest, a pretty head and neck with a kind eye. He is Colonel Freckles/Docs Prescription bred but we do not have and cannot get papers. He has been used to do every aspect of ranch work and knows his job inside and out. Sketch has been roped off of in the pasture, drug calves to the fire, drug bulls into the trailer, ponied colts, and has sorted pairs. He is good on the end of a rope and will not get you into a bind. Sketch is very cowy and excels in the sorting pen. He has been to many team sortings and even made it back to the RSNC semi-finals in Hamilton earlier this year with a good friend of mine who is a beginner sorter. Sketch is a fantastic ranch horse but is laid back enough that he would make an excellent trail horse too. I have had both kids and beginners ride him and he will adjust to the level of the rider. Put an experienced rider on him and he will step it up a bit. He is laid back until you put him on a cow, and then he is all business. I bought him intending to show him at the SHOT (Ranch Horse Versatility) shows but with a year and a half old son I have found I do not have the time for that. But he would do exceptionally well at that too, and I have him pretty much ready to go show at the novice level. Sketch has absolutely no buck in him. I have let him sit for a month and then hopped on him without warming him up and he rides right off. He is laid back but responsive, rides quietly on a loose rein, and has an excellent handle and stop. Sketch has a nice smooth jog and rocking horse lope, is good on both leads, will flex and bend at the poll, will sidepass and work a gate. Sketch is the type of horse you can ride just on the weekends and know he is going to be the same horse you put away the week before. You can go do a job on him and then hand him over to the kiddos and know he will take care of them. He is so broke that you can literally do anything you want with him. I am only selling him because I have no time to ride, and Sketch is too nice to go to waste in the pasture. A good home is a must. Sketch can be ridden out by himself or with other horses, and doesn’t mind being separated from the group. He has also been ridden alongside the road and in traffic and isn’t bothered by it. Sketch is easy to catch, load, haul and shoe. $6500. Call Wendy at 210-363-1883 for more information. Serious inquiries only, no tire kickers! Please no emails or texts. Delivery is available but not included.
