Location: GODS country | Which DTF son is your favorite? Would be crossed on an appendix mare (Doc’s Prescription/Hired Hand/Mr. Prospector bred). I really like Awesome Ta First and On A Gator. Looking to add that DTF turn, speed and more bone. |

| I'd breed to Woodbridge or Eddie Stinson or Famous Bugs. There are so many of them out there, breed to one that has been proven to produce, especially because the fee is so similar for all of them. |

Location: God's country...aka TEXAS | Hands down - Firewater Ta Fame!! I have 3 and will be breeding 2 mares back to him. They have it all - speed, looks, very athletic and the best personalities. They are pretty much born broke. |

Common Sense and then some
Location: So. California | There are over 100 DTF sons standing at stud, what do you want to see on the bottom side? What cross would work best on your mare? What do you want to fix on your mare? There are so many to choose from, it just depends on what you like.

Location: Texas | I have really liked our Firewater Ta Fames. The 2 year old gelding we have is very athletic. He is a little bit of a clown, and has been since he was a baby. Give him a job and he is all over it. My younger sister who doesn't have much experience at all with babies has been riding him. He is her first 2 year old to ever ride. He's been great for her to learn on because he's easy going and tries to please, but also challenges her to be a strong confident rider and discipline him when he wants to play. He's had a little bit of work on the barrel pattern at a walk and trot, and seemed like instinct to him to be snappy around a barrel. We haven't asked for anything yet out of him, he just does it.
We have a weanling colt we are selling (on BHW) who has a very similar personality, except maybe not QUITE as much as a goof.
Please forgive the WAY over finishing of the 2nd barrel. She didn't realize how much she asked him to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzG7eMvlwz4
Here is another video of him trotting the pattern with me (in my sisters saddle with longer stirrups!) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_VuQK8EyV4k
We also think pretty highly of streaking ta fame, and are breeding our JOH mare to him in the spring. |

Looking to add more bone, that dtf turn and more speed. Mare is ratey, fine boned and very quick. |

What is your mare's temperment? Some of these appendix ones don't do well with pure racebred IMO for barrels....depends on sanity.
I personally would love Firewater Ta Fame. I'd also consider John Fame, and your pick of Awesome Ta First might be a good too although I don't know much about him.
As for the bone, you may or may not get that regardless of who you pick.

She is a quiet mare, not much TB about her other than finer boned. She has had 1 foal by a Doc Olena son and on that cross she passed everything about the stallion onto the colt. |

| I have been a huge Freckles Ta Fame fan since the first time I laid eyes on him. I adore his dam! She is such a nice mare and Can Man runs exactly like her, only faster. Plus he's been stomping on the best horses in the country at those ERA rodeos with Ashley Schaffer. I believe his oldest crop are weanlings. But he's maternal side is very strong in performance horses. His full sister is pretty darn nice too so it isn't like Can Man was just a fluke. |

| Famous Bugs, Streaking to Fame, JL Sirocco, and Firewater ta Fame are all proven producers and sorta in your price range. I love Royal and Famous and Feel the Sting for 2017 as well.
Also, if you really need to add size, have you thought of Shawne Bug Leo? Not DTF but throws colts with a similar style and lots of bone. |

| I love my Streaking Ta Fame.
But on my list is KS Cash N Fame for sure. Cassadys Cash N Fame was wicked at the NFR, and Nellie Miller and Sister are kicking butt this year too!! |

Eddie Stinson for sure, the mare I used to ride had the fastest and smoothest turning style ever, I couldn't afford to buy her for myself though. Only thing I didn't like was that she had very small feet. She was crossed with an OTMR mare. |
