Horses

The 1+1 ranch quarter horses you will be riding have been raised, trained and rode in the Sandhills of Nebraska. They are outstanding athletes, bred for conformation, disposition, solid minds and eye appeal. Their performance ability has been proven on the ranch and in the show ring. Training starts their two year old year with brandings to attend, pastures to check and roping. 

Jerry Rowse (owner) says "It takes lots of wet saddle blankets to make the horse." We are firm believers that the experience of working cattle and many miles in wide open pastures makes all the difference in the training of our young horses. We guarentee our horses sound and drug free and will represent them as they are. Our ranch horses stand apart because they have been there and done it! The 1+1  ranch has a proven program you can trust that turns great horses into great partners.

Horses for Sale

The 1+1 ranch has a nice selection of horses for sale ~ Team Roping Horses, Broodmares, 2~4 year olds. Ranch Horses, Trail Horses.

With the turn of the horse market we did not bred any mares in 2010 and have down sized our Broodmare band from 30 to 10 or less this year. We will have colts to sale  in 2012, off the special hand picked mares we kept, we have been very selective on what we have kept to breed. Several of the mares are own daughters of our Silk Watch stud (own son of Watch Joe Jack).
