cut as a yearling and shoes need to be kept on his front feet
This is actually Gabe’s only horse that he ever received from Butch (after he died,lol). Gabe has
decided to put the money towards scholarship for this horse..here is his write up..
“Those who knew Butch Fanning knew that there were few things he loved more in this word
than horses. He loved these animals so much that he gifted a horse to all his grandchildren so
they could continue his legacy of horse trading. As a former educator, he also loved teaching
the next generation. So, in keeping with these two loves of his, the Fanning family will donate all
the proceeds made from the sale of this horse into a scholarship fund to be awarded to local
students who are seeking to advance their education at the post-secondary level. The Fanning
family thanks you in advance for helping support the legacy of such an important figure to the
Western community.”

In the Way Bay

Gelding

In the Way Bay is a 6 year old gelding. We purchased him as a yearling and he was started as a
2 year old in a feedlot for 30 days. We have been using him as a ranch horse for the last 4
years. He “received” his name because he is the one that is ALWAYS wanting to be caught
when we are catching horses. We have roped off him and drug numerous calves and sorted
pairs off of him regularly. He is a very friendly and gentle horse. He would make a great horse
for an “older” person or a “step up” horse for a younger person or a great ranch horse for
anyone. He is the type of horse that you can ride once a year or every day..he is the same each time!
