Location: Royal J Performance Horses, AZ | a lot of people will tell ya he's the best son of dash for perks standing ATM
and if my memory serves me he sent an offspring to the NFR? or was he the grand sire? i forget.
But anyway If you ask about folks favorite son of DFP at least 50% will say perks alive. followed by various percentages of others DFP sons.
I personally have a "perkolatin" Colt i really like from this years crop and he's super big boned and gritty with a great mind, so im pretty excited to see how he turns out performance wise. |

Location: Vinton, La. | He is throwing some pretty darn good barrel horses. Look on Joleen's website. She has some super nice weanlings by Bat for sale right now. His babies are kind, willing, eager to learn and drop dead gorgeous with great minds. |

| we have one out of him... she is pretty honest very bendy and can adjust to alot of different rider styles.. Fast too. Here is a video of ours http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxidmrxLy0w She is my sisters horse and I ride her too heavy on her face but you can see how well she clocks even with flaws.. she was top 50 of 750 at mega with this and I won a rodeo on her this weekend. |

| here is my sister on her. we love ours shes very calm and even tempered, good build. I have seen a couple that like her are a little on the small side and fine boned, but i dont know what her mother looked like. I would definitely take abother one, I have considered breeding our nice Honor Bound mare to him. https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10201249214694213&set=vb.128700... |

| I am a fan of my Perks Alive gelding. He has all kinds of gears that I can't keep up with just yet.
He is still green on the pattern. I started hauling him last year, and this year he was out the majority of the season with an injury. We were typically clocking a second off towards the end of last year and the beginning of this season, and this was before I found out my horse had EPM and fibromyalgia.
So he was working very honestly for me despite his pain! I now have everything cleared up and I am looking forward to bringing him back.

Location: Red Raiderland | I  him! I own to PA daughters and they are beautiful, sensible and so far the 7 year is working nicely. I would definitely buy more or breed to him and like someone said Joleen is awesome to work with.
These are a few pics (I gotta show my girls off!)
Black one is Macy and she is a 3 year old
Brown one is Lucy and she is 7 years old. Lucy is going on the barrels but I have not entered her until next weekend at Elite. I am a bit nervous about this big step with my girl but what the heck she's entered so I'll go for it. I'll either be a BIG HERO or a BIG FAT ZERO! Never know till you try, right?

Location: Desert Land | He is my favorite son of DFP currently standing because of his maternal side - I am a HUGE Bugs Alive in 75 fan. That is also why I chose to breed to Chasin Firewater over other FWF sons standing. |

Location: Finally horseback again.... | I havent ridden them but I alot of my customers have them.
I can say this.. They ALL are well put together, big boned, nice framed horses and they all seem to have good minds.
Kaycee's Lucy is one of my favorites. The pictures she has dont do her justice.
Also Gabes Babe has a two year old that is a nice sucker out of him. |

Aww thank you Sherry.  I couldn't find a really good pic of her so I just posted those. I had her up a couple of days ago in her stall and she was supposed to be eating. Well, she finished and decided to open her unlatched stall door(my fault) and I find her in the dog room where the feed is stored! She looked at me like, "What?!?" She's a goof!  |

Location: LouLouVille, OK | I was lucky enough to have him in my trailer a time or 2, I wasn't riding him though, lol But Kassie was and he was a PURE PLEASURE to be around, one of the nicest studs Ive ever been around... I was a little nervous as she tied him next to my gelding but I was nervous for nothing... he acted like a gelding, in fact he and my gelding got along so well, they just enjoyed each others company!
He seems to mark his colts with his good looks :)
He was so nice to watch run too, he loves his job and you can tell...
