TruWest Pure PrairieSmoke was our first stallion. Smokey was one of those colts that identified himself from birth as a genuine stallion prospect. Bobbi knew this the first time she saw the little black foal. She said, “He only confirmed my decision, and from then on never gave me one reason to change my mind.”
Smokey was gentle, kind and easy to manage at all times, anywhere. All of us could ride him, so he was called upon to do his share of work on the ranch. Smokey loved to work and accepted new assignments joyfully. Ask Bobbi sometime about Smokey’s first adventure in pasture roping.
Smokey was professionally trained as a reining horse. At the First Canadian National Morgan Show in Regina, Saskatchewan in 1997, Smokey earned the Championships in Working Cowhorse, Open Reining and Freestyle Reining, showing a lot of folks that you can do it on a Morgan. We received many nice comments on his beauty and good disposition. He he always drew interest and placed well in every local horse show. He has was the Grand Champion Stallion at the Dawson County Open Horse Show in Glendive, Montana in 2002, and was never beaten in a Working Cowhorse competition.
Smokey’s foals have been wonderfully consistent for correctness and balance; they all have cute, trim heads and good dispositions. They are very easy to start, they want to work cattle and are smooth travelers with a lot of style.
Smokey left us in the fall of 2021. He will always be loved . His legacy lives on in his beautiful daughters and his only breeding son, TruWest Smokey Mntn Chief.
