Thursday Thoughts with Kellie

Posted on October 2, 2026 by horseshoeangusranch

We had a fun-filled week with Dad’s cousins from California, Linda and Patricia! Dad took them touring around the Columbia Basin, including a trip up to St. John to look through old pictures and revisit some memories. They also stopped at Sonny’s in Washtucna for lunch—or dinner, depending on how long the visiting lasted!

They made it to one of Jaxsen’s football games, although being stuck in Ritzville while the road was closed nearly put a wrench in those plans. Connell came away with the win! With a big lead, JV went in, so they didn’t get to see Jax play much, but we’ll take the win. It was also a VERY windy night, so I passed on going. I support football. I’m just less enthusiastic about being sandblasted while watching it.

Dad also took them to Palouse Falls. Their last visit was in the spring, and Patricia wanted to see what it looked like in the fall. It was great having them here and getting some family time in between all the ranch projects.

Meanwhile, we started halter breaking foals and are already on our second group this week. We weaned more foals and fixed some fence, because apparently the fence did not get the memo that our schedule was full. The puppy got his first experience helping with fence repairs, and I think he had a pretty good time. His definition of “helping” may differ from ours, but enthusiasm counts.

Kade took my Gucci girl roping with Mr. Dansie, and she did amazing! Pretty proud of that girl—and pretty pleased to see her putting those skills to work.

We also had our September/October birthday party, but we’ll need another round because Terry and Erina were at a wedding and couldn’t make it. Having to celebrate again is a burden we’re willing to bear. Especially if there’s cake.

Today, Toni and Kade took a group of foals to the vet to get their travel papers. A reminder for buyers: if your foal needs travel papers, it is your responsibility to let us know ahead of time so we can get the vet visit arranged. A little advance notice helps keep pickup day running smoothly!

And we got our Seldom Rest heifer! We are super excited about her and can’t wait to see what’s ahead.

Family visits, football, foals, fence, birthdays, and a new heifer. Just another quiet week around here!

Dam: JWB Call Me Lura
DOB: 3/30/26
Color: Buckskin Roan—possibly homozygous roan
Price: $6,000

Color may catch your eye, but this colt has the substance and pedigree to back it up.

KT Gold N Ammo is a sharp-made buckskin roan colt with good bone, balance, and plenty of presence. He has the potential to continue roaning out and may be homozygous roan, making his color genetics especially interesting. More importantly, he is bred to become a durable, versatile horse with the mind and ability to work.

His dam, JWB Call Me Lura, is a big, ranch-type bay roan mare with plenty of size, bone, and durability. She is by True Enchanted Copy, whose pedigree traces to influential horses including Jackie Bee, San Peppy, Biankus, and Go Man Go—bloodlines known for cow sense, speed, athleticism, and versatility.

Lura is out of Luras Gold Star, adding Dandy Derby, Barts Sunglow, and Fritz Command to the pedigree. These foundation lines bring toughness, longevity, and the kind of dependable ranch-horse ability that never goes out of style.

On the top side, KT Gold N Ammo is sired by KT Gunpowder N Lead (“Gunner”), a powerful son of Cue Bars Laddie. Cue Bars Laddie was an AQHA point earner and proven producer known for his versatility in reining, cow horse, and roping.

Gunner’s dam, “Pistol,” is a proven NFQHA mare who has been featured in the NFQHA rule book and magazine. She was a dependable ranch and rope horse with the quiet, trustworthy disposition needed for the entire family to enjoy.

Gunner consistently produces foals with:

✔ Size and substance
✔ Strong bone and big hips
✔ Ranch-horse durability
✔ Willing, trainable dispositions
✔ The versatility to succeed in multiple directions

Gunner was started through the Allison Trimble program and ridden by Jordan Crabtree, giving him a solid foundation that continues to show through in his offspring.

Whether you are looking for a ranch partner, rope horse, performance prospect, or an eye-catching horse to enjoy, KT Gold N Ammo has the pedigree, build, color, and attitude to get the job done.

Saturday Colt Spotlight – KT Double the Payday

Posted on May 31, 2026 by horseshoeangusranch

If you’re looking for a colt that blends reining talent, ranch practicality, cow sense, and foundation bloodlines — here’s one worth paying attention to. He is an in your business type of colt so hard to get pics of. He is halter broke as well.

KT Double the Payday is a sharp-made palomino colt by KT OneShadie Captain (“Cappy”) and out of KT Easter Bunny (“Peanut”). He’s got the look, the pedigree, and the kind of mind we’ve come to expect from this family.

Cappy is backed by generations of proven performers. His dam, A Little Shadie Chic (“Shadie”), had a successful NRHA career including a 2006 Reserve Regional Experience Championship in Region One, AQHA points, and later became the kind of mare trusted to carry young riders in the show pen.

The pedigree behind her is stacked:
✨ Comandalena — over $143,000 earned and 260.5 AQHA points
✨ A Little Shady Jac
✨ Smart Little Lena
✨ Hollywood Jac 86
✨ Doc Tom Tucker
✨ Fritz Command

On the top side, Captains Double Coy (“Double”) was the kind of stallion we still talk about often around here. He consistently stamped his foals with cow, brains, athleticism, and easy-going dispositions. We still use several of his daughters on the ranch today, and Kade ropes off a couple of them regularly.

On the bottom side, Peanut adds foundation strength and personality. She’s a sweet-natured dunalino mare by KT Heza Pana Dude, carrying lines that trace back to Zinks Major Kid, Pana Dude, Major Bonanza, Skipper W, and Skipster.

This colt is bred to go in just about any direction:
✔ Ranch horse
✔ Rope horse
✔ Reining prospect
✔ Cowhorse
✔ Family using horse

Performance on paper. Ability in the pasture. The kind of colt that should only get better with time.

✨ Golden color, golden mind, and a pedigree to match ✨

KT Makin Gold is the kind that turns heads and wins hearts. This stunning palomino colt has all the pieces—looks, personality, and the kind of breeding that’s built to perform. He’s incredibly sweet, personable, and already acts like he wants to be your partner.

His sire, KT HotTimein Cowtown “Tank,” is a standout son of KR Gun Powder, the 2016 APHA Senior Reining World Champion, who earned nearly $13,000 in NRHA earnings in just nine shows. Gun Powder is by the legendary Colonels Smoking Gun (Gunner) and out of A Bueno Poco Dunit—a powerhouse cross of elite reining bloodlines.

Tank’s dam, KT Cow Cuttin Hottie, adds serious cow horse credentials. Sired by Cow Cuttin Colonel, her lineage includes accomplishments like NRCHA Superior Cow Horse, AQHA ROMs, and multiple futurity and derby finals. This is the kind of pedigree that produces horses that can stop hard, stay honest, and go to work.

On the bottom side, KT Queen of Hollywood represents a mare line that’s been proven time and time again. She traces back to KT Copper Queen Cleo, one of our favorite mares from our first foal crop by Docs Sizzle Bar. That line goes back to Copper Queen Robin—a true ranch mare that did it all: roping, ranch work, barrels, and 4-H. She wasn’t even used as a broodmare until her 20s, proving just how much durability and heart she carried.

Queen of Hollywood is by Genuine Dun It, the first NCHA money-earning son of Hollywood Dun It, whose offspring have earned over $5 million. With Genuine Starlet on the bottom side, this colt carries depth, performance, and consistency on every line.
