IMA HEAVY SMOKIN GUN (“Darla”)
7-Year-Old Mare | 14.2 HH

Looking for your next ranch versatility partner? Darla is a talented 7-year-old mare by Heavy Duty Chex and out of a daughter of Gunner, combining proven bloodlines with athleticism and versatility.

Shown successfully by a youth in Ranch Riding, Ranch Trail, Ranch Rail, Reining, and Horsemanship, Darla is an NRHA money earner, AQHA & APHA point earner, NRBC nominated, and PHBA eligible.

She has earned Top 5 and Top 15 placings at the APHA World Show, competed successfully at the AQHA Level 1 Championships, and showcased her versatility in the horsemanship pen with an 80-point run.

Athletic with a natural ranch horse appearance, Darla is a fun, versatile mare that is always ready to go to work. She has been introduced to cattle, worked the flag, and has also been used in the IHSA draw format, further showcasing her versatility and willingness.

Darla has been successfully prepared and shown by her youth rider and is ready for her next show partner. She would be an excellent fit for a novice or amateur rider working with a trainer to continue her successful show career.

In addition to her show accomplishments, Darla is also a proven producer. Her 2-year-old c**t, Heavy Duty Crush (by PS Mega Shine Chic), is a great example of the quality she produces.

Whether your goals are ranch versatility, reining, or adding a proven, accomplished mare to your program, Darla has the pedigree, credentials, and talent to excel.

Darla is only offered due to her youth rider heading back to college. We’d love to see her continue her successful show career with someone who will enjoy her as much as we have.

A brief little story about our AQHA Youth World Show journey and the blessings of a summer sore.

We HATE losing our hats in the arena! So Rowdy and Ryder gave a new product a try this week at the TNRHA show and it is a 10/10 recommended.

No more duct tape that won't stick to your sweaty head or that extra sticky hairspray that breaks you skin out after repeated use at the show. No more crying girls with blood running down their face from Bobby pins holding their hat to their scalp.

Hat Cinch get yours! You will not regret it!
