Location: Savannah, Tennessee | I know it's early, but we are all starting to get ideas for who we want to breed to for 2016. We are expecting a FrenchStreaktovegas baby next year and would like to breed her back one more time. Who are your top picks for 2016? |

Well I have a First Down French yearling that I love so he is my top pick for 2016. However, Famous Charmer has really impressed me recently. His foals are very correct with good bone and the ones that are currently riding are showing outstanding work ethic. They are already proving themselves as competitors. I dont have anything that I can breed currently but I hope to have one in my barn one day. |

| Nonstop Firewater is always my favorite barrel stallion every year. Not only because I have worked with him and just love his personality, but because he's proven and continues to throw beautiful babies. Plus he's under new ownership this year (Now owned by Southern Indiana Equine, where he has stood the past few seasons). He is about to have his 2nd NFR qualifier this year with Carley Richardson's Fashionable Boy, a 2001 sorrel gelding. His first was Sydni Blanchard's Firewater Five in 2010. |

Location: Wonderful Wyoming | I've got hopefully 4 coming by Guys Piece Ofthe Pie (FG x Fleeting Pie by Pie In The Sky). 2 are preg checked and the other 2, it was too late to breed then back if they weren't in foal (had late foals this yr from my old stud) so I will find out when we have their teeth done this fall, have them checked at the same time. I ride him and so know first hand how talented he is. His babies also sell for a nice price tag. |

Location: Where I am happiest | I know if anybody is thinking Firewaterontherocks then you have to be on your game oct. 1st at 8:00 a.m. to get a contract and his 2016 fee is $4000. The first 65 to request a contract on that day get in. She only accepts 65 mares period and last year his book filled in a little over 2 hours. She posted details on his facebook page. We are sure thrilled with the Firewaterontherocks colt we got this year.
A Streak Of Fling's 2016 fee is also going to be $4000.

Location: Oklahoma | My mares are due in April. I will be leaving one open and she will go into training. The other mare will be bred back to my guy. It will be the first foal crop for my guy so I have high hopes we get color and chrome. |

ASOF will be at $4500.
My "Wish List" is FWOTR. Famous Charmer, and A Smooth Guy. We have a rebreed to Frenchmans Guy, not sure if we'll breed any other mares than that though.

I LOVE First Down French...He would have been my pick for this year's foal...however, my mare is bred very similar..so I didn't go with him :( I just need another mare so I can get one.

Feel the Sting!!!!
He is on my short list!!! I really like him...just not sure about taking the chance since he isn't proven at all yet, as a barrel horse or sire...but I am considering him too for sure.
I am thinking about BHR Frenchies Socks at the top, Feel The Sting or back to Frenchstreaktovegas ... and whoever else might come along and catch my eye. |

Location: Montana | I may have to look at Famous Charmer, but I was thinking of breeding to a local jr. sire Tres My Fame...I think he could be the next big thing...at least in Montana. He's a son of Tres Seis out of a daughter of DTF, and goes back to Disco Jerry on dam's side too (on papers). I'm thinking he may be a good cross on my mare. Famous Charmer I think would be too...both are in my price range. :) I'm also considering Firewater Finale because his owner is a BB, and I have heard so many things good about Amy and her stud. :)

Firewater Finale is a fantastic choice as well. And FWF horses are very user friendly which can be a blessing in any barn. I started following the Famous Charmer facebook page and I just love his babies. I just enjoy how correct they are. Angie Meadors is currently rodeoing on his full sister and she is a super mare. |

I have a contract filled out for him and streakin ta fame, and got asked if id lease my cutting breed mare out for a bet hesa cat breeding. So I said yes to that, and have to decide what stud Im going to pass on.
This breeding game is HARD!

We just turned in the contract for my main running mare to Nonstop Firewater today. Can't wait to see this cross. Can't get much better conformation or mind than my mare, then hopefully Nonstop will add just the bit more speed that the mare is slightly lacking (she's a BIG mare, but no name pedigree). We are breeding to keep though, this mare's baby is going to be worth its weight in gold sentimentally. haha |
