Looking at colt out of a son of Firewater Flit and Azure T on the bottom side of that sire....   Likes, dislikes...  

I personally think FWF horses have small feet. However, that is the only thing I do not like and that is defiantly something that is manageable for a good horse!

I have a lot of FWF horses....a daughter and some grandkids. Only one he small feet (a granddaughter). They’re all friendly and easy to get along with. Very forgiving. I hoard them. 

I have a son of Firewater Finale and have seen a lot of own get in person. I know it is just what you have personally seen, but small feet is not what I have experienced. My horse has good sized feet and excellent bone. He has 3 white legs and we ranch hard on him. He has never been shod yet. I can't honestly fault FWF for anything other than some have a more "foundation" look to them. I lucked out and bred a pretty daughter of Shoot Yeah to Firewater Finale and with a combination of the 2 ended up with a stunning head. I get compliments all the time. Big soft eyes. He is also one that we can breed heavy April through July and pick right back up with ranch work in August and it is like he never had a day off. Their athletic ability, mind set and work ethic really set them apart. And they are usually built to hold up, that foundation coming back into play. I would love to own a daughter someday.

A few friends have them & they're really nice horses. Pleasant to be around & train well. Mine is FWF, Marthas Six Moons, Bully Bullion, & Beduino and I honestly think the FWF is what keeps her as sane as she is. I don't think I'd want her if she didn't have the FWF bloodlines. She's out of a mare by Alive N Firen. Lance Graves has been running her maternal brother a little bit this year as a 4 year old, he's ROCKBOTTOM FREEBIRD. I like him a lot, she's very similar.  He's a lot like Duke in his style and I think mine will be too once she's finished. Kinda tall, lean and leggy which seems to come from that maternal line. All the babies from that mare are built alike. My mare has really good bone for her build and good sized feet. I sure wouldnt hesitate to own more FWF horses in the future 

I just bought a 2 year old gelding out of Fire Water Vanilla By Jesses DOuble Dee. amazing! 

Would a FWF cross good with Strawfly Special bred mare? 

I don't think there is a bad cross lol. He crossed very successfully on nearly every race bred line out there. Marthas Six Moons, First Down Dash, Bully Bullion etc etc. I would sure try it. My husband has always wanted a SFS mare, but now you just can't find any young ones. 

Never have heard a bad complaint about FWF horses at all, its always been good on any cross.
