Trail horse deluxe Nice gelding with a well rounded resume & in condition for riding season. Bandit has excellent conformation thick bone, solid legs & great hoofs. He is a 13 yrs old 14.2 hands tall but rides like a 15 hand horse. He's strong can pack a heavier rider & has a nice barrel to take up the leg of a taller rider. Bandit just completed in his 1st cowboy mounted orienteering! He rode long course & performed like a veteran helping the team place 4th overall. His gaits are smooth & fluent. He has a ground covering extended walk, easy to sit smooth trot & the most comfortable lope I've ever riden. He is a dream to ride can go all day & still have reserve in his tank. Bandit has fancy buttons. He is light in your hands rides off your seat, has auto lead changes, leg yields, side passes, does roll backs, opens closes gates & will lope off from a stop. He sorts cows, beach rides, & knows gaming patterns. If not regularly ridden can be arena sour but gets over it with consistancy. He is currently being hauled to an indoor arena worked 3x week & trail ridden. Bandit is the ideal horse for someone who enjoys camping, cowboy mounted orienteering, endurance, beach rides & back country horseman activities. Nothing on the trails bothers him he crosses bridges goes under over & through everything. I use Bandit in my guided trail riding business. He happily packs all levels of riders. Bandit loves getting out & has never offered unfavorable behavior as a trail horse. He has been exposed to tractors, hikers, bikers, runners, gun shots, dogs, saws falling trees, wildlife & takes it all in stride. Bandit is healthy & sound. He does not require shoes & currently rides barefoot. He does not need supplements or grain. Bandit is only on quality hay & does great. Here is what it takes for Bandit to come home with you.
