If you like pretty buckskins with brains, pedigree, and versatility built in — KT The Mighty Gun deserves a look.

This colt is the kind we love raising at KT Ranch: good minded, athletic, balanced, and bred to go in just about any direction. Whether you want a ranch horse, rope prospect, reiner, or all-around using horse, this colt has the genetics and disposition to get there.

His sire, KT Gunpowder N Lead “Gunner,” is a son of the accomplished Cue Bars Laddie — an AQHA Open All-Around Trophy winner and CCHA Hall of Fame horse that proved himself in reining, cow horse, and roping events. Gunner consistently passes on shape, bone, athleticism, and quiet minds.

On the bottom side, Breezy brings a pedigree packed with proven performance and trainability. Her sire, The Mighty Oak, earned multiple reining and all-around accolades including World Show qualifications in heading, while Breezy’s dam also qualified for the Junior Reining World Show and earned a Performance ROM. Breezy herself is a kind, willing mare with the type of disposition we value highly in our program.

KT The Mighty Gun combines:
✔ Fancy buckskin color
✔ Proven all-around performance pedigree
✔ Athletic ability & versatility
✔ Quiet, trainable disposition
✔ Ranch, rope, reining, or family horse potential

This colt has the look, the mind, and the bloodlines to make someone an outstanding partner down the road.

This week and last:
➡️ Hauled Reba, her filly, and MB up to Allie’s, but not in one trip and Allie came down and ultrasounded some mars and bred a mare to Classic Metal.
➡️ Got Sally hauled up to Morgan’s to be bred to Hercales, and she was in heat so came back home.
➡️ Been shuffling mares back and forth to breed to our own studs
➡️ STILL waiting on a few mares to foal

At this point, the pickup barely gets shut off before someone says:
“Hey… can you hook onto the trailer real quick?”

It’s been a busy — and pretty exciting — week around here.

The boys are headed off to the FFA State Convention! Kaine will be receiving his State Farmer degree, which is a huge accomplishment and something he’s worked hard for over the years. Kade and Jaxsen will both be competing, and we’re excited to watch them represent. Proud doesn’t even begin to cover it.(These are last year pics)

Meanwhile, Anna is deep into finals week at college and will be home soon. We can’t wait to have the whole crew back together again — especially heading into the busy summer season.

Last weekend we had a great time at the Jr. Angus Field Day and the kids had a really successful show:
🏆 Champion Cow/Calf Pair
🏆 Reserve Champion Bull
🏆 Reserve Champion Bred & Owned Heifer
🏆 Reserve Champion Evergreen Heifer
🏆 Anna also earned Reserve Champion Showman

And a reminder to those showing Evergreen heifers — they PAY OUT! Kaine came home with $300, which makes those banners even sweeter.

On the horse side, there’s lots happening too. Kade has been getting rides on Rip, our really nice 2-year-old bay gelding that’s offered for sale, and he’s also been legging up Gucci. It’s fun watching these young horses continue to come along.

Breeding season is rolling right along:
✨ Reba headed up to be AI’d to Brother Jackson
✨ Sally was bred to Jake Bennett’s barrel stud, Hercales
✨ And now we’re impatiently waiting on Nutter Butter to have our foal by John Holloway’s stud, PD

And probably the biggest horse news around here lately — we added a new stallion to the program last week: Classic Metal. We are SUPER excited about this stud and can’t wait to see what the future holds for him at KT Ranch.

Between FFA, finals, cattle shows, breeding season, riding colts, and everyday ranch life… there’s never a dull moment around here.

KT A Dry Scotch
Gelding, 6 panel N/N
Sire: NZ Scotch Time, “Rip”
Dam: KT A Benelli Girl
Date Born: 4/10/24

Color: Bay
Price: $8,500.
Currently being started by Kade.

If you’re looking for a top-end all-around prospect, take a hard look here.
This sharp bay gelding is by NZ Scotch Time “Rip,” a proven money earner in the heeling, barrels, and a versatile ranch horse that’s stepping into the heading and cowhorse arenas. Rip brings size, brains, and a solid, willing disposition—everything you want in a performance sire.
On the bottom side, he’s out of KT A Benelli Girl, a big, eye-catching mare with a strong performance background. She’s been used in both roping and barrels and is currently being brought back into shape to rope off of again. This is a mare that’s proven and producing.
Pedigree here runs deep—this gelding traces back to Dry Spec a Pepper (1986 Eastern Idaho QH Assn. Senior Cutting Champion) and the legendary Dry Doc (NCHA Futurity Champion & Hall of Fame). Add in Cue Bars Laddie, an AQHA All-Around Champion and CCHA Hall of Fame horse, and you’ve got generations of real, functional ability stacked behind him.
He is also a ¾ brother to KT Gunz for Chics “Glo,” making this a proven cross.
But honestly—the pedigree is just the start. This gelding moves. He’s got that natural self-carriage, a cowy look, and the kind of presence that makes you stop and watch. Plenty of muscle, good size, and the kind of balance that will take him in any direction.
✔ Athletic
✔ Good-minded
✔ Built right
✔ Versatile prospect
This is one we’re excited about—come take a look and see the quality for yourself.

If you’re waiting for things to slow down… this probably isn’t your kind of life

We wrapped up a great week at the Spokane Jr Show and now we’re rolling right into another one — headed to Ellensburg for the Jr Angus show this weekend. We’ve still got a handful of mares left to foal, so the mom and the men are holding down the fort while we’re gone.
