Ranger is enrolled in the VGBRA Stallion Incentive. His first foals were born Spring of 2021 and when they are ready to enter we will enroll him in FF and SSS.
We have frozen semen available. Stallion fee $1000 cooled, $900 Frozen – Please note that if his competition schedule conflicts with collection for fresh, we will ship frozen. His semen freezes and ships great. I will honor live foal guarantee for up to at least 1 week of age on the foal as so many die after the stand and nurse clause standard in the industry. If we breed your mare it is because we want a foal out of your mare out in the industry.
Multiple 1D winner in Texas, 3rd at TEXAS NBHA State Finals 2023.
Hankerelse has been hauled to a handful of PRCA Rodeos and has been just out of the money at Burwell NE, Sidney IA, and Wichita Falls TX. He was gritty in his first real "mud run" at Mineral Wells this year.
In 2023 with only 4 AQHA shows under his belt, He earned AQHA Performance ROM in Roping, Qualified for 2023 AQHA World Show Heading Level 3 and Heeling Level 2, L2 AQHA World Show Heading 12th place, and L2 Heading 2023 AQHA Year-End 7th.
In 2025 Hankerelse added a new event to his versatility! In his very first four lifetime entries in pole bending - at The Diamond Classic Main Event, he showcased his agility and quick feet. The KKRV Pole Bending qualifier was rolled in to the Taylor County Poles. He held his own winning 5th in the average and ran a respectable 21.6 on his last go as he gained confidence.
He also ran a lifetime best in the Taylor County coliseum in The Diamond Classic barrel racing with a 15.777. Also his last run of four, it is proof of his huge and golden heart that he improved every run. He was featured in a split timing barrel racing post with fastest turns at The Diamond Classic Main Event.
All this with no drugs, no shoes, no problem. Raised, trained and ridden by a not-so-young lady. Loaded With “Try”, Runs Barefoot - Solid & Sound. He has a natural cup to his soles and his feet grow down without flairs. I gallop him daily on rocky west TX ground. Not a bleeder.
It is a trend now to cross cow-bred on run in our industry, to improve soundness, mind and desire to turn. Please consider the old school barrel pedigree of Hankerelse combined with his proven performance in barrels, roping, and now pole bending for your next outcross on your speed mares.

) Burwell NE 2023 PRCA Rodeo, he placed 13th but they only paid 12. It was his first Pro-Rodeo and Burwell is as good a test as you can find to see how a horse will handle rodeo. We got rained on and the whole Pro-Rodeo experience. He loved it.

) September 22, 2020 - 72 head. Ranger ran a 15.967 to win with just 4 others in 1D and the next closest time Patty Clark with a 16.238 on her awesome Dashin Bob.

) September 6, 2020 - West Texas Fair and Rodeo jackpot. He was 16th in the 1D with a 16.657 out of around 240. The 1D included some of my all time favorite horses, including Jackie Ganter's Howes A Tycoon 16.175, Smoken Lane 16.506, and Guys French Jet 16.616; and Crystal Love Nichols NB Ladybird 16.583.
