About Us The family’s interest in horses started over 130 years ago when my great-grandfather raised horses for a living. The ranch has since evolved into raising quality commercial Black Angus cows and top quality Quarter Horses. The horses compliment the cattle program as we use our horses on the ranch as well as in the arena. |

| We believe in speed and intelligence and our mares are mainly race bred. We believe in the need for the foundation Quarter Horse in our mares as that is what gives them their ability to cow. We strive for excellent conformation and feel our new stallion, Frenchmans Easy Doc, will complement our mares. |  |

| Our mare herd started with mares acquired from Kenny Allison from Gordon, Nebraska. Kenny spent 40 years of his life developing mares that had plenty of speed, good minds, and the ability to do anything that was asked of them. We had purchased many Allison horses in the past and had used them with great success in the rodeo and roping arena. | |

Our two boys, Garrett and Blake, are actively involved in the performance horse business. They currently attend college on rodeo scholarships and are members of the NIRA. Their events are tie-down roping, steer wrestling and team roping. Garrett is a member of the PRCA and he and Blake are actively involved in the breaking and training of many of our young horses - riding them at the rodeos. Mike and Blake rope at USTRC events as well. We constantly strive to improve our breeding program and provide quality horses that are good arena prospects and capable of winning at all levels. We look forward to having people ride and enjoy our horses and breed to our Frenchmans Guy stallion, Frenchmans Easy Doc. Thank you for visiting 88 Ranch Performance Horses! – Mike Henry |
