Additional Comments
Rocker is a very attractive gelding that was used on a ranch, he has done many facets of ranch life from checking on and moving cattle from pasture to pen, sorting pairs, and pushing cattle out of the marsh, pushing cattle onto trailers. He has been hog hunted on and had guns shot off of him. He rides with a loose one hand neck rein, has a good backup and stop. He is smooth at the walk, trot, and canter. He will ride the same way every time you ride him once a week, once a month, or once a year.... (read more)
Rocker has no problem with you carrying a flag, or opening/closing gates, he will walk down streams, over fallen trees, has no problem walking up/down steep ditches and ravines, he will go anywhere you point him, through thick brush, in the woods with no spook. We have been using him on our trails and in our obstacle course walking on plastic bottles, across bridges, walking across the teeter-totter, and in the arena going around the barrels and poles.
Rocker stands still while being saddled/bridled, clipped, groomed, sprayed for flies, picking his feet, being mounted (from the ground or a mounting block), while standing tied or cross tied, for the vet/farrier, he loads and hauls very well. He is easy to catch, is gentle, and has good ground manners, very in your pocket type. He is kid and dog friendly and gets along with all of our other horses (mares and geldings alike). He is not dominant, he is a low man on the totem pole.
He would be a great prospect for many things such as; ranch rodeo, playdays, drill team, barrels, poles, grand entry, parades, pony club, trail riding, trail horse competitions, ranch sorting, team penning, English, walk-trot, lead line, or as a lesson horse.
Rocker is a good-looking red sorrel with a flaxen mane and forelock, a cute little head, a sweet face with a kind eye, a nice wither, a straight back, with a wide chest and hip, and a long thick tail.
