Mary Berger just bought a slick horse. So that tells you something. I doubt she would of bought one if she didn't believe the horse would be nice.

We own a 3 year old filly by him. Me personally, I do think they have a consistent look to them. I’ve seen several and IMO they are all very pretty headed. I’ve not seen a huge one, they tend to be 14.3-15.1 hands. My filly is very feminine looking, you would never mistake her for a colt. There’s a gelding in my area I’ve seen recently and he looked so much like her just a thicker version. Our filly is incredibly kind as well. Again these are just what I’ve seen and I certainly haven’t seen them all. I’m excited to see what they do.

I have seen some very beautiful heads which he is a very beautiful headed stallion so makes sense. I’m excited to see more of them in the arena I always liked Slick.

We bred a really nice proven DTF daughter to him and she just checked in foal this weekend. I am really excited for this cross. I think Slick is a nice horse. In the past I have not been a fan of OTMR own get, but obviously I was willing to give him a try. Also, being at HighPoint made that choice a lot easier. They are a first class facility and their breeding manager Christi is just the best!

Just a fun fact, Slick had 4 yr old win a barrel race this weekend in Texas by almost half a second with 300 runners.....

One thing about Slick that I've noticed is that he doesn't "stamp" his babies.  Slye might be an exception, but I haven't seem Kellies Chick conformationally so I am not sure. They all look so different, depending on dam.  Please correct me if I am wrong, but that's what I've seen so far. 

Slick sure stamped my colt. He is out of a driftwood bred mare

I agree with you! Beautiful!!

I have a SBD x FG filly and a ASG x calf roping filly and I can’t decide which is my favorite. They weren’t cheap to buy but neither raising babies. I can’t wait to get them started. I have both priced and don’t care if I sell either???????

Like others have said, I breed with the thought that I will sell them at some point. I want marketable, user friendly foals that are eligible for some good incentives.

Slick By Design X SorryICantStopToChat X Pritzi Dash
3 month old black filly

She was a little bit stubborn and not super friendly when first born. It took her some time to warm up but once she learned people give scratches and nose kisses... She's all about us. Her pictures today were also the first time she was ever tied solid and she didnt pull back once. Was pretty easy to halter break. Turns both ways loads nice and easy. This is a really nice filly. I'm excited to have a full sibling due in 2019.

Ma'am I'm not looking to start an argument, but she is indeed black. She looks more "brown" because shes kicking out that baby Hair, and because I saturated the pictures slightly when i took them so she would "pop" better. She is not as light in person as the pictures may portray to you.

To add to it she will be getting color tested as she could be homozygous black. I may also check agouti just to be sure. If you saw her in person, You'd have no doubt. That I promise.

I'm guessing then she has not shed out the baby fuzz around her eyes and muzzle then, it just looked like she had already shedded her fuzz on her face, sorry if I had offended you..Edit to add:  I was going by all that brown on her face..

One of the best things you can hope for when owning and breeding a stallion is repeat customers. Almost 1/2 of Slicks book this season was to repeat breeders that likes their previous foals. There is a reason that Dash Ta Fame is the number one stallion of all times. One because he is awesome and two is he has 3000+ foals on the ground. Interesting enough the number #2 stallion of all times has over 1600 foals and the number #3 of all time has over 1500 foals. There is ZERO chance anyof them would be where they are at today if their owners decided to only breed 25 mares a year.

We have kept Slicks breeding fee at an affordable price so people could afford to breed to him and not have to get a huge price for their foals if they want to sell as a weanling or yearling.

Slicks 3 year old crop will be his first big crop to hit the arena in December.. He was bred to GREAt mares that are in the hands of GREAt owners and trainers.

Time will tell if he will become a great sire.

We have done everything in our power to promote him and his offspring. The new Pink Buckle program is going to pay like a slot machine. In my opinion this program has the chance of becoming a multiple million dollar program and people are going to have the added bonus of running for big bucks all the way to the 4 D that will pay out $100,000 in just the 4 D. It will pay to breed to a Pink Buckle Stallion!



I have personally been around Slick babies and can attest they are fantastic. This is exactly why I’ve bred my mare to him, and several close friends have continued to breed to him. Several friends have sold their babies and made good money on them. I breed for what I personally like, but something that will also have good resale value if I ever decide to sale. Being a small time breeder I am grateful they have kept an open book with a reasonable price for such a nice stallion. They are always extremely professional, personable, and he has the best quality I have ever shipped on.

I also want to add to you can’t breed a low quality mare to him and expect him, or any stud, to override all of their bad traits. All of the Slick babies I’ve been around were out of nice mares (all bred differently) and he “stamped” them very well, IMO.

Technically and genetically there actually isn't a 'brown.' There are sunburnt blacks (sometimes they are smoky) and there are really dark bays (there is a modification allele that can really darken the bay almost to black, similar to a sooty gene on a buckskin). Both of these get registered as browns because they get the light around on their face and around their flanks. It would be great if AQHA would catch up with the science. :)
