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.

Two-Year-Old Tuesday: KT Masked Mirage ✨

Posted on April 1, 2026 by horseshoeangusranch

Some fillies are for sale… and some are the reason you breed horses in the first place. KT Masked Mirage is staying right here.

This gorgeous bay splash filly, born 4/30/24, is one of those special ones we’ve been excited about from day one. She is the long-awaited foal out of Lonesome Jaebargina, “Gina,” and by Masked Gun, and we truly could not be happier with how she turned out.

Her dam, Gina, is a beautiful mare we brought from Iowa, and she has been everything we hoped for and more. She is sweet, loves attention, and has the kind of proven record that speaks for itself—AQHA point earner, NRHA money earner, ROM in Ranch Riding, and 4x World Qualifier. Gina is by Lonesome Royalty, who earned his ROM in Working Cow Horse and is by Lonesome Lynx. On the bottom side, her dam Do Right Dew brings in names like Docs Jack Sprat and Freckles Playboy, adding even more depth to an already standout pedigree.

Her sire, Masked Gun, only adds to the excitement. With LTE of $90,000, this 2014 palomino stallion has an impressive performance record that includes being an NRHA Futurity Open Finalist, NRHA Derby Open Finalist, TRFAM Shootout competitor, AQHA Congress Futurity Open Finalist, and NRHA Derby Open Ancillary Reserve Champion.

KT Masked Mirage has the pedigree, presence, and kind of future that made this an easy decision for us—this filly is not for sale. We are thrilled to be keeping her and cannot wait to watch what she becomes.

Thursday Thoughts from the Ranch

Posted on March 27, 2026 by horseshoeangusranch

Thursdays around here are that funny in-between day…
Not quite the start of the week, not quite the weekend either.

The cows don’t care what day it is—
they still need checked.
The horses are still waiting at the gate like they haven’t been fed in years.
And somehow, the to-do list keeps growing faster than we can cross things off.

We might be a little tired, a little dusty, and running on coffee and stubbornness…
but we wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Because out here, even the long days come with good views, good stock, and a whole lot of gratitude.

Just another Thursday doing what we love.
