h t i w s e r ore Sugar a MM Badger

By Larry Thornton

R. L. Underwood, an AQHA Hall of Fame member, believed very strongly in the philosophy that “Great Horses like Great Men, Have Great Mothers.â€? This philosophy was very strong in the Underwood breeding program RI WKH , ÂśV DQG ÂśV DV 8QGHUZRRG EUHG PDQ\ ÂżQH quarter horses.

Fulton, a Rancher and businessman from Lubbock, Texas bought Sugar Badger as a weanling. He purchased Sugar Badger from Alvis Townley, her breeder DQG KLV SDUWQHU LQ WKH ¿OO\ *HRUJH +XPSKUH\V +XPphreys was the long time manager of the famed 6666’s Ranch of the Burnett Estate.

The late historical writer, Bob D enhardt, credited Underwood’s success to his strong band of broodmares and his inbreeding program. The Underwood broodmare band included such individuals as Betty Lou, a winning halter mare and Bonnie Blue, a full sister to the great Grey Badger II.

Fulton reports that he bought Sugar Badger as a broodmare prospect because of her sire. She was a daughter of Grey Badger III, a stallion that Fulton would own and stand. We’ll let Fulton explain, “Grey Badger III foals were excellent cow horses. Most of them would buck with you, if you laid off them for 3 or 4 days, especially on a cool morning. But they were darn good cow horses. In fact, we thought they were about as good a ranch horse as we had ever raised.� Fulton went on to explain that they used Grey Badger III for about 10 years on their ranch and that he improved the quality of ranch horses they raised and used.

Underwood’s success through a strong broodmare band can be seen in Cutter Bill. Cutter Bill was the result of Underwood mating his great show stallion Buddy Dexter with one of his show mares, Billie Silvertone. Billie Silvertone was reportedly a very good halter and cutting PDUH WKDW GLG KHU SHUIRUPLQJ EHIRUH RI¿FLDO UHFRUGV ZHUH NHSW E\ WKH $4+$ +HU RI¿FLDO SURGXFH UHFRUG ERDVWV two AQHA Champions in Cutter Bill and Smutty Bill, an enviable record for any broodmare.

But that doesn’t mean that all great broodmares have WR KDYH D VKRZ UHFRUG 6RPHWLPHV ZH ZLOO ¿QG D JUHDW broodmare that never had the opportunity to perform.

These individuals fall into a special category because they were not performers, but because of their strong pedigree or conformation, they are given the opportunity too prove their value as a broodmare.

Joe Kirk Fulton’s great broodmare, Sugar Badger, was one of those unshown mares that has made a great impact on the modern quarter horse. Sugar Badger is the dam of Peppy San Badger, the leading sire of cutting horse money earners. But as we delve into the life RI 6XJDU %DGJHU ZH ZLOO ¿QG WKDW 3HSS\ 6DQ %DGJHU LV only a part of her story.

Fulton certainly didn’t waste anytime making Sugar Badger a broodmare.

Fulton had just hired a new trainer named Wayne Pooley.

Fulton had decided to sell a few mares and one of the candidates was Sugar Badger. Pooley and Fulton were ORRNLQJ WKH PDUHV RYHU DQG 3RROH\ VSLHG WKH ÂżOO\ DW WKH side of Sugar Badger.

Pooley recalled that fall Texas day this way, “Sugar Badger was out in the pasture with the other mares. I really liked the baby at her side.

Honey K Bar had won the Grand Champion Mare title and was waiting for the pleasure and cutting classes.

Pooley decided to try for the all around and so he entered Honey K Bar in the barrel racing class. He asked his son Don to ride the mare in this class with he idea to lope the mare through the barrel pattern. Don declined to ride the mare because he thought he would look “silly� loping her through the pattern. So Wayne loped her around the barrels. She won the All Around saddle with wins in cutting, pleasure and the Grand Champion Mare title. This was typical of Honey K Bar, she would be Grand Champion in the morning and win the pleasure and cutting in the afternoon.

Pooley added this about the mare, “Honey K Bar was just an outstanding Pooley remembers the PDUH DQG LQ P\ \HDUV DV D futurity this way; “I recall professional trainer, she is WKH ÂżUVW WLPH , URGH KHU LQ one of the very few horses Gray Badger II was the paternal grandsire of Will Rogers Coliseum. She that never regressed in her Sugar Badger, being the sire of Grey Badger III. really looked pretty just like training. She was at least Photo Courtesy of the Burnett Ranch, LLC. when I was showing her as good or better on every at halter. Someone asked succeeding day. This is very me what I was showing in the Cuttin’ Futurity and I said, unusual for any horse and she will always have a fond I’m showing this mare. And they said, How’s she doing?’ place in my heart.â€?

Pooley showed Honey K Bar in halter, pleasure and cutting as a four year old. During that campaign, she Sugar Badger foaled Bar’s Promise in 1967.

Fulton and the legendary B. F. Phillips Jr. became partners in a lease agreement to breed Sugar Badger to the great cutting horse sire Doc 0’Lena. Sugar Badger produced the foals Docs Little Sugar and Lenas Little Sugar.

Docs Little Sugar was sold in the Heritage Western Sale in 1984 for $75,000. She went on to become a 6HPL ÂżQDOLVW LQ WKH 1&+$ )XWXULW\ DQG DQ 1&+$ &HUWLÂżcate of Ability holder with $6,903 earnings.

Lenas Little Sugar was the last foal out of Sugar Badger. A nurse mare raised her after the death of Sugar Badger. Lenas Little Sugar was in cutting training when B. F. Phillips died in 1987. She was never shown, and Fulton has retained Lenas Little Sugar for his broodmare band.

The pedigree of Sugar Badger carries some very good quarter horse foundation breeding and some interesting outcross thoroughbred blood. Her sire Grey Badger III was foaled in 1947 and bred by Oscar Cox.

III. Two Eyed Jack is a leading sire of ROM performance horses and the all time leading sire of AQHA Champions with 119. His record of 119 AQHA Champions may never be broken.

Walter Merrick bred Grey Badger II. The Reynolds’ story tells us that Grey Badger II came to the Burnett Ranches as an 8 year old. He lived his life on the Ranch siring ranch horses and some good show and racehorses. He is the sire of such AAA runners as Coe Badger 89, Sumerall’s Bay Badger and Badger’s Grey Lady.

Grey Badger II’s impact can be seen in the reining horse industry through such descendant as Easter Gentlemen.Easter Gentleman is out of Bobbin Badger

Merrick once reported that he bred his great race mare Lena’s Bar to Jet Deck, because Jet Deck was a descendant of Midnight Jr. When Lena’s Bar was bred to Jet Deck, she produced Continued on page 22...

Grey Badger III was an A rated racehorse and ROM on the track. Franklin Reynolds reported in “The Burnett Horses,� The Quarter Horse Journal, February 1957, that Grey Badger III was bought by the Burnett Estate as a potential replacement for his sire, Grey Badger II. It must be noted that Grey Badger III not only produced some very good ranch horses but that he has left his mark as a broodmare sire. His impact as a broodmare sire can be seen in his other very famous grandson Two Eyed Jack. Two Eyed Jack was out of Triangle Tookie a daughter of Grey Badger Page 20

The dam of Grey Badger II was Grey Annie by Billy 7KH 7RXJK 7KLV PDNHV *UH\ %DGJHU ,, ; LQEUHG WR Billy The Tough and 4 X 5 X 4 linebred to Peter McCue.

Pooley continued, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I never did ride her. But when Joe Kirk and I were discussing the future of Honey K Bar, he ZDUQHG Âľ<RX PLJKW QRW OLNH WR ULGH WKDW ÂżOO\ EHFDXVH WKH mare (Sugar Badger) was a tough mare to ride.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Fulton told me that Jack Adkins broke the mare and he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like her, because she was a pretty tough broncy mare.

Joe Kirk thought that the mare might transmit that quality to her foal. That didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bother me, because a horse that is a little snorty doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bother me. I thought that the *UH\ %DGJHU EUHHGLQJ ZRXOG JLYH WKH ÂżOO\ VRPH VWDPLQD and a little more grit and it did.â&#x20AC;?

The dam of Grey Badger III was Mary Greenock, a thoroughbred mare by Greenock. Greenock was a FKHVWQXW VWDOOLRQ IRDOHG ,Q +H ZDV VLUHG E\ 7KH Porter by Sweep by Ben Brush. Greenockâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dam was Starella by the imported *Star Shoot.

Pooley explained that he has seen this same grittiness and snortiness in all of the Sugar Badger foals that he has been around. He even credits this gritty disposition as a possible secret to some of Little Peppyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success as a cutting horse and sire.

The dam of Mary Greenock was a thoroughbred mare named Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mine. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mine was sired by Phalaros and she was out of Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s That by High Time.

Sugar Townley was the dam of Sugar Badger. She was sired by Lucky Jim by Redwood P-191 Redwood was sired by Madway Tenacity by Bull Dog Tenacity. Bull Dog Tenacity was sired by the imported thoroughbred *North Star III. The dam of Redwood was Miss Anson by Harmon Baker, a son of Peter McCue. Thus Lucky Jim was 4 X 5 linebred to Peter McCue.

Midnight Jr. was the last foal of Midnight, a son of Badger by Peter McCue. Badger only sired one son and that was Midnight. The dam of Midnight Jr was Salty by Billy The Tough by A. D. Reed by Peter McCue.

When the Grey Badger name comes into the conversation, the cold backed disposition of this line seems to automatically come into the picture. So what kind of disposition did Sugar Badger have? Pooley talked about Sugar Badgerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disposition this way, â&#x20AC;&#x153;She was easy to handle, but she was pretty snorty. You didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to rope her to catch her; you could catch her like any other mare, just as long as she knew you wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hurt her.

She was a mare I enjoyed handling.â&#x20AC;?

The dam of Lucky Jim was Little Mother. The sire of Little Mother was Tom (Scooter) by Midnight. This makes Sugar Badger 4 X 5 linebred to Midnight. Little Mother was owned at one time by R. L. Underwood and was also known as the Y Ranch Quarter Mare. She was the dam of Star Light, who was the dam of the great mare Continued on page 24...

The dam of Sugar Townley was the H. J. Clark mare, whose breeding is unknown. Sugar Townley was the dam of only six foals with 3 of them being performers.

She was the dam of two AQHA Champions in Bars Choice and Aledo Bar Ben. Her third performer was Mr Choice Bar. He was shown only as a yearling and thus wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t old enough at that time to earn points. Her other foals were Sugar Loot by Oil Loot, an unshown stallion, and an unshown mare named Little Paducah by Captain Nero.

The phenomenal success of Peppy San Badger deserves our attention at this point in our story. Little Peppy has proven to be a very prepotent sire with many of his colts carrying his distinctive color and blaze face that ORRNV YHU\ Ă&#x20AC;DVK\ LQ IURQW RI D FRZ

One of the outstanding characteristics of a top broodmare is the ability to produce good foals when bred to different sires. Wayne Pooley found this to be true in Sugar Badger. He explains, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think you could have bred her to any horse in the world and without fall she would have produced a good foal.â&#x20AC;?

Pooley went on to explain that Sugar Badger was not an impressive mare to look at, but she stamped her foals with â&#x20AC;&#x153;with ideal conformation as far as structural soundness goes and conformation as it is related to performance.â&#x20AC;?

Aledo Bar was the 1959 AQHA High Point Halter Stallion. He lived just ten short years and produced 17 AQHA Champions and sired three AQHA High Point Halter Horses. His halter champions were Aledo Barâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lady, Aledolita Bar and Lady Gaines. Aledo Bars was sired by Steel Bars by Three Bars.

Many times when you study the pedigrees of prepoWHQW LQGLYLGXDOV \RX ZLOO ÂżQG D SHGLJUHH WKDW FDUULHV VRPH type of linebreeding or inbreeding. This is the case with Leo, the paternal great grandsire of Little Peppy. Leo was inbred to Joe Reed P-3. His sire was Joe Reed II

by Joe Reed P-3 and his dam was Little Fanny by Joe Reed P-3. Leo was noted for his prepotency as a sire of good quarter horses.

When we look at Little Peppy we see no linebreeding RU LQEUHHGLQJ LQ WKH ÂżUVW ÂżYH JHQHUDWLRQV RI KLV SHGLJUHH It is this lack of inbreeding or linebreeding that Wayne Pooley holds as the key to Little Peppyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success as a sire. He sees Little Peppy as a complete outcross on the concentrations of bloodlines prevalent in our industry today.

He explains, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I strongly feel that no inbreeding or linebreeding in Little Peppy is one of his most desirable characteristics. Because he is a complete outcross on many of our concentrated bloodlines. We have so concentrated on some of the bloodlines, such as Three Bars, that our horses are so saturated with them that we need an outcross horse and Little Peppy is the ideal outcross on all those bloodlines.â&#x20AC;?

Pooley was quick to clarify that horses like Three Bars have done a great deal for our breed but that this concentration of bloodlines needs an outcross to keep going. The great show stallion Dual Pep, who has earned in excess of $300,000 shows Little Peppyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success as an outcross on an inbred Doc Bar mare. The dam of Dual Pep is Miss Dual Doc by Docâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Remedy by Doc Bar. The dam of Miss Dual Pep is Miss Brooks Bar E\ 'RF %DU 7KLV PDNHV 0LVV 'XDO 'RF ; LQEUHG WR Doc Bar. Thus Dual Pep is the result of outcrossing Little Peppy on an inbred Doc Bar mare.

Sugar Badger proves that good mares donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to have a show record. She will always be remembered as the dam of Peppy San Badger. But as we have seen in this story of Sugar Badger, she was the dam of several good foals. Thus the quarter horse industry will always be grateful to Wayne Pooley for talking Joe Kirk Fulton into keeping this great mare.

THE 15TH WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP RANCH RODEO Working Ranch Cowboys Association

Kansas Team Wins Ranch Rodeo's World Championship The World Championship Ranch Rodeo trophy is going home to Kansas, with the team from Scribner Ranch and El Dorado Livestock Inc., both from El Dorado, Kansas.

The winning team was comprised of dad John Scribner, brothers David, Doug and Daniel Scribner and family friend Brett Cloud.

As they turned in strong performances each of the four nights of the rodeo - with never any major mistakes - "we knew we were probably in the hunt," Daniel said. The Scribner/El Dorado team ended up winning the wild-cow milking event and overall surpassed the second-place team by a respectable margin of 12.5 points.

Upon realizing they won the world championship, "We just shouted and slapped each other on the back. It just felt really good," said John, who's 68. His role at this rodeo was as a substitute, in case someone got hurt. That didn't happen, so he "stayed up in the stands and cheered the boys on." But don't think he wasn't enjoying himself.

"When you're my age and the boys ask you to come and play with them, it makes you feel good."

For their world championship win, the team won a bronze director's trophy and championship trophy belt buckles from the Working Ranch Cowboys Association, which hosted the championship and sanctions all qualifying rodeos; a 20-foot stock trailer from Gooseneck Trailers; custom saddles sponsored by Texas Vet Lab Inc.; a $350 gift certificate from Oliver Saddle Shop; and a custom-made ranch gate sign from Praisegates/Dennis McBeth.

The World Championship Ranch Rodeo was held Nov. 11-14 in Amarillo, Texas, and was WRCA's 15th annual championship.

Reserve world champions were also from Kansas: Beachner Bros. Livestock of St. Paul and Broken H Ranch of Bronson. Those team members were Calvin Kendall, Cody Kendall, Cliff Hall, Sage Hall, Bruce Beeman and Orban Stevens.

Third place went to last year's champs, Sweetwater Cattle and Tom Drummond Ranch of Foracker and Pawhuska, Oklahoma.

Sweetwater has leases in Kansas, though, so there's a Kansas connection. Fourth place continues the theme, with that honor going to Arndt Ranch and Bailey Ranch of Emporia and Tampa, Kan. There's a trend, too, when it comes to top hand and top horse - this event's MVPs. Both are from Sandhill Cattle Co. of Earth, Texas.

Top hand of the 2010 WCRR was a repeat from the previous year: Riley Smith of Sandhill Cattle Co., who was truly a top hand skilled with the reins and a rope - in every event he entered. Reserve top hand was Tell Good of the Triangle Ranch/Black Cattle Co. team of Dimmitt, Texas.

The top horse was Sixes Sixgun, an athletic American Quarter Horse sired by Sixes Pick who was ridden by Tripp Townsend of Sandhill Cattle Co. and is owned by Crofoot & Sandhill Ranches GP. But the championship rodeo is about more than just recognizing good ranch horses and letting great cowboys show off their skills.

It's also the primary fundraiser for the Working Ranch Cowboys Foundation, which offers scholarships to the family members of working cowboys and crisis assistance when injury or illness take a toll on a ranch family.

The ranch rodeo featured a benefit auction - with wonderful donations from teams, vendors and volunteers - as well as fundraisers put on by the popular Pokey the Clown. A trade show, ranch-business expo and cowboy entertainment rounded out the championship experience.

Visit www.wrca.org to learn more about WRCA and WRCF or to see photos and full results from the championship rodeo.

2010 World Champions - Scribner Sam White - Triangle Ranch Jake Mitchell - Crutch Ranch Ranch & El Dorado Livestock and Black Cattle

The Working Ranch Cowboys Association and Foundation would like to THANK the ranches who drove the miles to compete! Without the support from sponsors, volunteers, and everyone involved the World Championship Ranch Rodeo would not be possible. See you next year! Our hats off to all the supporters of WRCA & WRCF who bought tickets to watch the best ranches compete. Thanks also goes out to all the venders in the trade show and ranch expo for bringing your best to Amarillo to showcase.
