The QH breed has really declined and the vast majority of them are unathletic and ugly. If you really want a good American breed, the American Thoroughbred is a much better choice. The look of eagles, TSM. Warmbloods are sratty too though (and probably the only European import that is).
My first horse was an American TB so i definitely agree that they are a great breed. After working with German warmbloods, though, I’ve become a huge supporter. Much like cars: stay domestic with a sturdy American or import luxury European.
The Fraattoper and rgb4 clearly you have never been to the american quarter horse congress. One of my horses costs twice as much as my BMW and I have 2 of that caliber
Really? Because the top horse at that sale (Huntin For Chocolate) sold for $300,000 since he was a well-known western pleasure breeding stallion. There were definitely quality horses at that sale, but nobody wanted to pay much for most of them. And yes, the average sale price of $8,085 included Huntin For Chocolate’s price.
At this point, I doubt whether you’ve even been to the Congress. You sound like you don’t know what you’re talking about.
Yes your figures are right however as you said Huntin for Chocolate is a stallion ergo breeding stock as I said. I can’t speak for all however in the circles I am framliar with Paint and Quarter horses go for substantial prices and are the strongest and most succesful breeds.
