Darth Vader is a gentle giant who is ready to go into any program. He moves easily, with a smooth and steady stride. With his size, he is ready for a long day's work on the ranch, or the trail.
He confidently navigates rocky hills, sand washes and creek crossings. Branding pens, large groups of cattle in a feedlot, or team ropings, Darth Vader is relaxed and reliable in every situation! If he needs time off, Darth Vader comes out of the field as the same horse- steady, reliable and ready to go to work.
While he loves to be on the ranch and the trails, he is also a polished arena partner with collection, leads, and a great stop. Darth Vader has roped the heel-o-matic (heading and heeling), and while he may be a large heel horse, he is a great teacher who will put you in your spot on the heel-o-matic time and time again. He loves attention and anyone he meets, with a meet you at the gate attitude! On top of his work ethic and kind nature, he has confidently ridden by trains, over tarps, stood in a ring of fire and had guns shot off of him! Ride him bareback or with a saddle, Darth Vader takes his job seriously and is ready to excel with any rider.
