[QUOTE="tntrex, post: 1366150, member: 10520"] If you have kids. Don't get stud or mare, they can get goofy. Go with a gelding or 2. If your big butt wants on, get em 15 hands high or more. You can find some hurt/slight lame wore out tripping horses or header/heelers for cheap that has been worked more hours than a catapillar diesel and he will love you riding him casually but you cant ride hard. Geldings (usually) wont get wild when a mare is around, studs do. They aint expensive if you have enough acres and a well. You dont even need them shod if you aint rodeo., just trimmed. Trimming you can do yourself. If you want shoes, they're around 80 bucks around here and thats every 6-8 weeks. They come to you. Vet is a bill depending on the horse shots needed. Don't know if you have a barn for shelter so that costs if not. And always put your hand on his rear and keep it there as you walk around the back of him... [/QUOTE]
