I didn't want to steal the other thread but I've been busting at the seams. A gelding that John Knippling of Gann Valley, SD raised, my brother started and trained for roping and my daughter used him through HS & 4H rodeo is headed to the American in tie down roping with Jack Hewitt of Ratcliff, Arkansas. JK Dunits Doc aka Johnny Ringo is making us all very proud! eta....the picture shown has been purchased. Sorry for the watermark.

Esther - 2015-02-16 11:21 AM How cool!! Jack is family to me and we live close. Your horse has been in my arena, lol.. I hope we get to see them both on TV!
That is so cool Esther! Jack is a great friend of my brothers. He wasn't going to trust Johnny Ringo with just anyone but he went to a great home. Jack will do great things with him.

2burkeboys - 2015-02-16 9:25 PM That's great! Now maybe I can even get my non-rodeo husband to watch The American. I've owned Knippling bred horses since the mid '80s!
I found on RFDTV where they are playing the semi-finals on Sat & Sun so I'm hoping we get to watch him. I need to find out when he ropes for sure. My brother and sister in law are flying to Ft Worth today. Johnny's buttons are busting off he's so proud!
