13 yr grade gelding

Twix is a been there and done that dependable 15.1 hand gelding that everyone can get along with. He likes to have someone calm and soft on the ground as well as in control on his back, he isnt a dead head type. He stays the same no matter how much time off. His resume includes all things ranch related (except having to doctor/load/be at the end of a rope from anything bigger than a calf), been on wagon trains, used at local sale barn for years, been in parades (been a while), seen the mountains for hunting trips. This horse has personality and is so fun to ride! Rides mostly off seat/legs but also neck reins super well, gets gates like he was born to, the right amount of cow sense to help you out but not lose you staying with it, and good for all the things a broke horse should be.

He has been a little sore running the herd in lately and I have not gotten it checked out. There is no visible signs of anything. Could be a stone bruise for all I know but I dont have the time or want to get it checked out right now with all my vet bills Ive had lately. Either way, hes worth what Im asking. Would be a dynamite play day, ranch Aqha shows, penning/sorting, lighter ranch. May or may not need maintenance of some level. He isnt off much so Im assuming it wont take much for him to be useable for quite a few years yet.

I will eventually get it checked but offering beforehand.
