18th Annual
Hello Friends,
Welcome to the 18th Annual Van Norman and friends Production Sale
For the last few years, this sale has focused on modifying its selection by decreasing breeding stock and increasing riding horses. This purposeful change is in response to the industry’s ever-changing needs. With that in mind, this year, more than ever, you are being offered a wider selection of riding horses with exceptional value that you won’t find on every corner. This is a ranch horse select sale. Our goal from the beginning has been to showcase quality animals. We go to great lengths to ensure that you are being presented with the area’s best. It is our intent to offer horses that will adhere to the best of ranch standards. Most of the bloodlines represented are among the very best in the industry for ranching and working cow horse. Many of them have been raised and trained on local ranches which contributes to the development of many beneficial attributes. If you are in the market for a good all-around ranch horse, you have come to the right place. If you are looking for breeding stock, be sure to notice the jampacked pedigrees and the individual appeal of the horses presented. We invite you to tour the catalog with confidence that what you are seeing is a respectable product. Don’t forget to check out the web preview that has videos, pictures, pedigrees, and notes. And as always, if you have questions, please feel free to contact the consignor or the sale management. Hope you enjoy, and please come join us live or on the web in September!

Freckled Lil Pepto, a 2005 red roan stallion is our latest star. “Preacher” is a really well-proportioned stallion with an amazing temperament and oodles of cow. He is as comfortable in reined cow horse shows as he is weaning calves in the fall or branding calves in the spring. He was trained and shown to several victories by Flint Lee who has to fight with Sharon and Cowboy to get him back to prepare for show season. Both Sharon and Cowboy love to ride him. He is that neat of a horse. Needless to say he is showing a lot of promise as a reined cow horse, a dependable ranch horse, and as a sire. Colts are eligible for the Nevada Stallion Stakes.

“Pistol” embodies the old chestnut, “Dynamite comes in little packages!” He is not very big, but he makes up for his lack of size in power, athletic ability, and heart. He was the Nevada Stallion Stakes Open Snaffle Bit Champion in 2009 and won the 4-year old event at the Harney County Fair. He was 4th in the Nevada Stallion Stakes in 2010 and Reserve Champion Two Rein at Kalispell, MT in 2010. He is definitely making his mark in both the Shelman and Bunch breeding programs. Standing by private treaty. His first colt-Pepinics Lil Playgun aka Pete recently sold in the Shelman Summer Sale for $17,000 as a five year old. Cory’s daughter Sydney and son Cory use him to brand calves. He is passing his great disposition on to his colts and like many Playgun-bred colts, they tend to be bigger than their sires.

A half-sister Kwackin x Crackin produced Smart Crackin Chic another NRCHA Futurity Champion. A full-brother Nabisco Roan has been successfully shown by Jake Telford with multiple AQHA and NRCHA Championships to his credit. Fret was trained for two years by Bobby Ingersoll and shown in the NRCHA Snaffle Bit Futurity. Placed 3rd in NSS Open Snaffle with Cory Shelman. His first foals are now two and looking good.

No need to hype this pedigree. It speaks for itself. As a sire Nick produces athletic attractive colts with lots of action and brains. They seem to be very versatile. One of his sons is successfully running barrels with Paty Raine in California. Casey Bieroth of Mountain City, NV is having a lot of success in local shows on his Nick gelding. Others are on ranch payrolls and surely earning their keep. The oldest colts are now six so he has a long way to go. Nick is so full of cow that to relieve his boredom away from breeding season, he keeps his pen free of intruders by working the blackbirds and ravens who foolishly invade his space. He is affectionately referred to as “The Mustang” because of his long mane and tail and often scruffy appearance.

They are cowy, athletic, and have super dispositions. Fudd colts have a reputation for being fast learners and are very trainable. Little Elmer Fudd is sure to cross well on the Madonna Blue Bee mares now going into the TS brood mare band.

This is an excellent up and coming sire out of a top producing Van Norman bred mare and by Sophisticated Catt (a three time AQHA world champion with lifetime earnings over $192,000 in cutting.) JP Colonel Blackcatt is very cowy and super quick on his feet! He possesses many substantial Colonel Freckles personas including trainability, good bone, a nice big eye – to name a few. Plus this guy is built to stop. He is very smooth and pretty. Ty started JP Colonel Blackcatt and quickly decided to further his training. In 2012 the young sire was in reined cow horse training with Clayton Edsal. He has been shown at local stock horse events with plans to finish his training into the bridle. Now back at the ranch, the upcoming feature horse is pulling double duty as a sire and a stock horse. This horse doesn’t have the size to be an ideal head horse, but no doubt has everything to make a perfect heel horse, reined cow horse, and ranch horse.

The Van Norman Quarter Horses believes this to be one of the best ranch horse bloodlines. The Colonel Freckles bloodlines are not as available as they once were – but their outstanding qualities have stood the test of time – making them more valuable than ever. It truly is the backbone of the Van Norman Quarter Horse breeding program. JP Rolling Thunder carries a lot of bone and muscle and is very athletic for his size. He has a super disposition and is a true gentleman. His offspring repeatedly reflect his easy going and friendly disposition, combined with athletic ability and stamina. Thunder is doing a marvelous job of perpetuating the Colonel Zippo Pine legacy for Van Norman Quarter Horses. Year after year, return buyers come to the sale looking for Thunder colts.

Van Norman Quarter Horses bought this horse from the Lapkes in Iowa in 2009. He had a brief but promising career in working cow horse and reining, accumulating 45.5 AQHA points and qualifying for the World Show. Due to an injury, he never proceeded with his show record. Peptos Playboy is an outstanding horse, not only on his papers – but in the arena and on the ranch as well. Along with using him at ranch rodeos and branding competitions, Ty also began heading and heeling on him which he took to with no problems. Six-year-old Anna was riding him on the ranch – now ten – she shows him in youth stock horse classes. He is gentle, kind, easy to be around and behaves like a gelding. At 15.2 he is strong, cinches deep and is stout on a rope. His first foals for the program are just now in training with favorable results.

Van Norman Quarter Horses bought Wrangler in August 2011 from Lacey Livestock of California. He has won over $40,000 in NRCHA, NCHA and NRHA events. He placed 3rd and 5th at The World’s Greatest Horseman event. He is an awesome heading horse and some of his get are doing well in barrel racing competitions. His full brother is Starlights Wrangler owned by Dell Hendricks – an accomplished reining competitor. He has the size, disposition, and conformation necessary for a good ranch horse. His first foals for this program are on the ground, and they show his same speed and agility. He is a proven performer in reined cow horse, cutting, and reining, as well as a ranch sire. Van Norman Quarter Horses has been very happy to have him. Unfortunately this past winter, we were forced to geld him due to an injury so there will be no more Wrangler colts to look forward to. We have kept back a number of yearlings and weanlings for future offerings, however.

A grandson of Freckles Playboy! Here’s a colt with the kind of pedigree that’s harder to find these days, with some older, more classic cow horse breeding on both top and bottom. We were blessed to have his sire for his final breeding season, and this guy is the only stallion of the foal crop. His dam came from Bunch’s program, by Starlite Starbrite (by Greys Starlight). He can’t help but be a good one.
CHRISTMAS CHEX
Easter Chex / Thrice2
Bill Van Norman bought this mare as a yearling through the Van Norman sale in 2002. She was started as a two year old with just 10 rides on her before she was put in the broodmare band. She has consistently raised stud colts. Several of them are currently being used on the ranch. The ones we have kept have a lot of travel and are good using horses: great for ranching and roping and doing a job. They are good-natured, but have a lot of go. Can’t beat them if you have a job for them. Service sire for 2015 foal: JP Rolling Thunder.

She handles well, is very broke, but she does have a touchy spot around her left ear when taking the reins over her head. Ty recommends split reins or reins that you can unsnap. She has raised two foals for us with no breeding issues. Currently she has been pulled from the broodmare band to be used as a ranch horse & heel horse.

She is just the right size, not too big or small, to do the job. Dolly has the potential to make a great ranch, arena or pleasure horse. In a couple of years, the whole family will be fighting over who gets to ride her! And with her breeding, she’ll make a terrific brood mare. She is appendix registered.

SR Chex Reminic is a nice bay gelding that has been used on the ranch for several years. He is gentle, has been used to sort and gather cattle, has been roped on in lots of brandings from baby calves to yearlings. He will go any direction you might need on the ranch. If you give him time off, you will need to lunge him around before you get on him. The guys call this guy “Huevo” because he has a funny back but we have used him for everything and it has never bothered him. Current on shots.
Smart Little Lena / Jay Bar Heart
“Swamp-rat” is easy going and a pretty laid back all around ranch horse. He has had all kinds of ranch work done on him and is turning into a well-rounded horse. He’s the type that can be laid off for a spell and a person can get back on him with no surprises. Gentle enough for novice riders. This summer he will receive arena experience with some cow work, reining and roping exposure. Ty thinks he would make a nice heeling or tie down prospect. Super easy to get along with.

“Caramel” is a gentle, friendly, correct, gorgeous dun filly with straight legs and bloodlines that combine many greats. Caramel goes back to greats like Bert, King, Power Command, Topsail Whiz, Doc’s Lynx, Easter Chex, and Hollywood Jack 86. Their accomplishments are well-known. She represents her family well—being the only Little Young Bert sired yearling that we brought to the sale this year. Ride her, show her, raise colts—you decide, but she should make you proud.

Take a good look, this mare has lots of potential as a rope horse or ranch horse. Her siblings have proven to be gentle, big, versatile, and durable horses. We expect her to do great things. She has been exposed to the roping machine and live cattle. She will be shod and ready to go to work. 30-45 rides by sale day. Call Matt with questions (775) 304-8515.
Young Paul Bert / Mee Josie Bar
Very broke. Gentle. Seasoned. Breed her or ride her. This is a nice mare. Ty started her and showed her as a three and four year old including the snaffle bit futurity in Reno. She has raised three colts and then became a riding horse again. She has been used extensively by Ty and Ronda for ranch work, ranch rodeos, branding contests, stock horse shows and has had some experience as a heel horse. Sure-footed and a good traveling mare—she is easy to ride outside, but also perfect for the arena. The whole family can ride her. Call Ty at (775) 397-2132.

Boon is a good looking horse, with nice size and bone. He has always been kind and loves people. He is great to brand, sort and doctor cattle on. He has willingly done everything asked of him. Boon is one of the nicest horses we have ever owned. He is in the two rein and going into the bridle nicely. Boon would make a good horse for just about anyone. He is not yet a kids horse but would make a good one someday. This is an excellent head or heel horse prospect.

Skittles has been a part of a cow/calf and yearling operation his entire life. He has run to lots of cattle outside to be doctored and drug hundreds of calves to the fire. If it needs to be chased down, sorted, or caught he can do it. He has the ability to be turned out for a time, caught and put right back to work. May be a little cinchy if fresh, but it does not become anything if you don’t let it.

SR Chex Bullet is a pretty gelding just waiting to go to work for you. His dam is very cowy and gentle. Shammy showed her several years ago. We would expect this colt to have a lot of cow as well. He should make a good ranch and using horse. He is current on all shots and eligible for Nevada Stallion Stakes.

This is a nice big all-around ranch gelding. He has been used in all aspects of ranch work. He’s great to rope off of. He is gentle enough for the first time rider but talented enough for an experienced rider. He has a truly fantastic temperament. He has no problems or bad habits.

Take a look at this flashy red roan filly. The dam is nice to be around, super, super gentle, stout and pleasant to ride. The sire was very athletic, stout and muscular. Ty thinks she will make a very nice all around horse – one that you will be proud to own. Call or message Ty Van Norman for more information: cell (775)397-2132.
