SNW NortherN Frost

SNW NORTHERN FROST.

Bred by current AQHA President Stan Weaver and his wife Nancy, excellent breeders with an eye for a horse with a future, “Hooey” is pure Dakota through and through. His top side has all the South Dakota Cowan superstars – Sun Frost (Docs Jack Frost) and my nostalgic favorite, Boon Dox John. On the bottom we pull in the North Dakota legend, Mr Blackburn, a true-blue cow horse producing superstar. SNW Northern Frost took those two performance bloodlines to the roping pen and pasture. While he is a “Big 4” rope horse, roping both ends as well as tie-down and breakaway, he really made his mark as a ROM Heeling Horse underneath JD Yates. Take that performance and throw in the deep, gorgeous dun color, big hip, solid bone and pretty little head and you’ve got yourself a boyfriend who will have a calendar full of dates. Hooey is just old enough to have some horses out there making a name for him, including Northern Goldmine and Kit McCall Miller. Kit and Cricket are burning up the barrel pen up north as well as down in AZ. Kit has also ridden for Deb and Bill Myers so knows quality when she sees and “feels” it. Last summer, Megan Cobb and Northern Bert (SNW Northern Frost – Frosty Vanita) placed at the Sand Cup Futurity in WA as well as winning money at Dunns Arena in AZ. Megan says he’s just a naturally gifted athlete who popped off an 18.1 on a standard pattern his first run out with very little time on the pattern. Despite a 5 month vacation last summer recuperating from an ill-fated fight with a fence, Northern Bert managed to win over $6500 last year between the barrels and team roping. Finally, Driftwoods Fox, a 2012 buckskin gelding (SNW Northern Frost x WC Driftwood Buck) topped the 2019 Jamison Fall Production Sale in Kansas at $25,000. As Sharon recently purchased SNW Northern Frost, she hasn’t yet located all of his get that were foaled with former owners. It’s going to be so fun for her to find those jewels as she advertises and people find out where Hooey is currently calling home. I really like this guy and hope to help Sharon make contact with older colts by him so they can take advantage of her kindness paying him into the Gridiron Breeder’s Futurity. You can get a breeding contract from Sharon by calling her at (605) 964-6575 or visiting her website, www.swdiamondbarquarterhorses.com.
